The Battle

Light and Darkness

Wrestling, Fighting, Destroying

Darkness and Light

Pulling, Struggling, Combating

Pain against freedom

Life against death

Passion against apathy

Fighting to the last breath

What a horrible war

The pain is unbearable

What an awful fight

The darkness is terrible

How do I fight

With nothing left in me

How do I love

When hate is all I see

How do I keep passion

When somehow it simply dies

How do I get up again

When all I see are lies

This is a terrible battle

Of epic proportions

This is more than a war

Of powerful conclusions

So God I run to you

With my broken armour

With my tattered heart

I have nothing more

I run into your arms

I trust in your power

I come to your fortress

In this fateful hour

You are over this battle

You carry supremacy

You have ordained this war

To overcome the enemy  

So, I know I have to get up again

I know I still have to go back

But I believe you will give me strength

To fill in where I lack

I know I still have to fight

And the thought fills me with dread

But I believe in your power

And the words that you have said
