World War

The battle never ceases
Until I am nothing but a pile of pieces
The war will continue on and on
Even though we will all be long gone

People around me drop dead
As I stand and watch, my body filling with dread
I look around for any sign of help
When I realize not even I can yelp

My voice does not come out
I cannot scream, I cannot shout
Standing there, looking at the ground
Mad at myself I can't make a sound

And now I know
That as much as I try, it will never let me go
The war's got its claws buried deep in my heart
And because of that, I will never part
