LyricMeaning

At War With Me
Zack Hemsey

Verse 1:

Only notions he considers are hollowed and lost thoughts

Visions that confer only sorrow that time’s caught

A ghost upon a body so shoddy and scared soft

A mind so terrified it’s resigned and it’s shut off

But that’s to be expected when a boy has been selected

In his hands is placed a weapon as a soldier then directs him

Shoot upon your father

To refuse you’ll burn in horror

No pursuit of pride and honor

He just stands immersed in sweat

Family eyes connect

He holds his rifle to his chest

His heart is heavy with regret as he unloads with his offence

And “in the name of freedom” is chanted to loud applause

While planted in his brain is an image of Hell crossed

Sobbing in his spirit and fearing the holocaust

He must compose himself or risk being the next lost

Now every shadow hides a face he’s shot or blown to dust

With every day he’s dying and getting more out of touch

And every night he dreams he ends the death machine

And finds a way to run from his stranger and this regime

As morning leaves him choking and full of grief

He’s hoping today will be the day that brings him a reprieve



Chorus

If only we could find the fortune

Instead of misfortune

Would be see it’s out of proportion

Or have we cut off our feet

No way to retreat

In nothing but defeat

But if we can get us lost

And try to take it off

Could we clean up this distortion

Try to make it soften

Are we all orphans now

Have we exhausted now

And I never loathed a life

But now I lead this war with me



Verse 2:

I suspect my calm’s Manchurian in nature

Just a matter of some time before she makes me waste ‘em

Yet I possess no fury toward this stranger

No I just feel allured by coming danger

Change her I wouldn’t

I want to ride the current of her storm

Nourish on her sword

And let my soul absorb

And he of pure mind, let him to me accord

Benevolence to ward off temptation that I have stored

Cuz lord knows the craving in me grows

With every step I took I knew the devil in me rose

Waiting on a precipice so delicately posed

A long and lovely fall no will or fire can oppose

But the beauty of her form brings violence

And I succumb to dancing with this Siren

And I can feel the weight of this unload

Perception has been altered now I see what she’s bestowed

The wrath in me explodes and the sins of men are found

The power of her sound reveals malevolence abound

To he who sees no heaven amongst the clouds

The reckoning is coming, get ready for buried ground

Yet I can feel such impurity within

I must expel the fiend and let its hole cave in

And so to singe this evil now I pull the pin

But clutch it to my heart to end the journey of my twin



Chorus
