One Man War

I’m the dust of earth
Playing host to a war
The blood-stained dirt
That angels and demons battle for

Bloodshot eyes
From the sleepless nights
Or dreams that I have
Where I’m caught in the midst of the fight

One man war
A house divided
Cannot stand to see itself
Torn in two
Warring factions
Over who will claim this soul

If a war could be civil
This would be it
Who wants to fight against themselves
Much less it be fatal

From the breaking sea
To the broken land
Reflections of what’s on the inside
Of this broken man

One man war
A house divided
Cannot stand to see itself
Torn in two
Warring factions
Over who will claim this soul
