Lyrics

I Am War

I know me, I know myself
I do not fear countless battles ahead
I will win, then I go to war
Swifter than the wind, and attack like fire
I am war, I am hurt and pain
I am misery, I am loss and sorrow
I am war

To know you, I become you
Knowing every fear of each of my enemies
You go to war, then seek to win
Appearing strong when clearly you are weak
I am war, I am hurt and pain
I am misery, I am loss and sorrow
I am war

I am war, I am hurt and pain
I am misery, I am loss and sorrow
I am war, I am hurt and pain
I am misery, I am loss and sorrow
I am war
I am war
I am war
