War Within Songtext
[lyrics by Dan Swanæ]

When you were born, that's when I died, it took too long to realize
I am white, your black, I'm slowly turning to gray
Like a disease you break me down and cry
You're the king, I'm the fool

I'm your eternal prey.

[CHORUS:]
Die! let me regain control
Die! Let me reign in my own soul
Die! Let my life return
Die! I'd do anything to see you burn!!

What I create you desecrate
Fuelled by endless hate
How can I win this war?

This war against myself?
You're the king, I'm the fool

[CHORUS]
Die! let me regain control
Die! Let me reign in my own soul
Die! Let my life return
Die! I'd do anything to see you burn!!

If I decide, it's suicide inside of me
How will I know you won't follow me?

You tricked my mind, you made me blind, but I finally can see
There's no escape. Cerebral rape, you're my destiny!

You turn me on, you turn me off
Like I'm a fucking machine!
You tuck me in, you throw me out

Now all my thoughts are obscene!

[CHORUS 2x]
Die! let me regain control
Die! Let me reign in my own soul
Die! Let my life return
Die! I'd do anything to see you burn!!
