Wage War – Southbound lyrics

Define me as a failure, only the shadow of a man,
I will suffer the judgment passed by those who simply do not understand
Who I am, the way I think, the pain that sets in underneath.
And when I try to be myself it seems like the insecurity gets the worst of me.
Gets the worst of me!

The distance, it makes me sick,
But there's a new way that I'm coping with conviction,
And I don't expect you to understand it.
I can't leave these words unsaid,
Cause it's a product of the battle that’s in my head,
And I can't pretend that it never haunts me.

The world will never be enough for me,
I'll tell you from the top, it's only skin deep.
I don’t know what I believe,
But it's not the way it's supposed to be.

Over these past few years I admit that things have changed,
Dreams became reality, but the pleasure became pain.
I've loved, I've lost., you wouldn't know what it cost ,
After every sacrifice that I have made.
I'll take this to the grave!

You can be who you want be,
But your nightmares live in the same dream.
Go be who you want to be.

The distance, it makes me sick,
But there's a new way that I'm coping with conviction,
And I don't expect you to understand it.
I can't leave these words unsaid,
Cause it's a product of the battle that’s in my head,
And I can't pretend that it never haunts me.

I don't expect you to understand it,
And I can't pretend that it never haunts me.
