My Own Wars

MY OWN WARS - Written by Carroll Bryant

I rushed to the door to open it up

And nothing was standing there

I ran outside and into the darkness

Of my own despair

I fell to my knees

My eyes started bleeding

The pain was just too much to bare

Without  a warning the sky started crying

Suddenly an angel appeared

What have I done?

I started my own wars that just can't be won

Where can I run?

Dodging the bullets I fired with my own gun

I swim in the eye of life's hurricane

As I cling to the fears of my past

Dancing with demons inside the fires

Try but I just can not laugh

I talked to my sister, my mother, my friend

And still I can't defuse the bomb

Without a reason my thoughts all exploded

Suddenly the angel was gone

What have I done?

I started my own wars that just can't be won

Where can I run?

Dodging the bullets I fired with my own gun

And the battle goes on and I still can't believe

In the jaws of defeat, I claim victory

And the battle goes on and I still can't believe

To the love of the angel, I just can't concede

What have I done?

I started my own wars that just can't be won

Where can I run?

Dodging the bullets I fired with my own gun

I'm dodging the bullets I fired with own gun

What have I done?
