Battles

You keep your head down low And fake a smile so they won't ever know The way you feel inside And the thoughts you're fighting so hard to hide You can't sleep at night 'Cause you hear them every time you close your eyes The voices in your head That whisper thoughts you wish could be left unsaid You might think you're on your own But there's something you should know I'm fighting battles right here on the inside You might say you've never seen them 'Cause it's something I try to hide I've got demons that I just can't seem to kill Been fighting back for my whole life But they're with me, still So, the lesson is, despite what you've been shown You should know you're not alone You feel you can't go on Like every choice you've ever made was wrong You think it's time to go But there is something that you should know You might think you're on your own But you're not alone I'm fighting battles right here on the inside You might say you've never seen them 'Cause it's something I try to hide I've got demons that I just can't seem to kill Been fighting back for my whole life But they're with me, still So, the lesson is, despite what you've been shown (You should know you're not alone) We're in this fight together We can face it, you and I 'Cause I'll be right here by your side By your side I'm fighting battles right here on the inside You might say you've never seen them 'Cause it's something I always thought I needed to hide Still got demons I can't kill Been fighting back for my whole life and I battle, still So, the lesson is, despite what you've been shown (You're not alone) So, the lesson is, despite what you've been shown You should know you're not alone
