Civil wars

I remember your face in the mirror
I remember the look in your eyes
The subtlety of your secrets and whispers telling me something I'm not

All the silly games you play and walk away with nothing to show
(Shed the skin wherever we go)
"Pull yourself together once again or else" is all that she wrote
(Your hands behind, we'll take it slow)

The wars we wage inside our heads
The lies we can't escape
We tasted fear in younger years
And buried our mistakes

The weaker ones are left behind, the wounded good as dead
So tell me who you think you are, we'll handle this like men

Yeah!
You think you're talking, put your money where your mouth is
So afraid of the thought of what you could become
The fight is here and it is more then you had bargained for
Run away, run away
It's what you really want

The wars we wage inside our heads
The lies we can't escape
We tasted fear in younger years
And buried our mistakes
The weaker ones are left behind
The wounded good as dead
So tell me who you think you are
We'll handle this like men
We've all got civil wars
We've all got civil wars
We've all got civil wars

We've
All
Got
Civil
Wars

We fell on black days once again
([?] under my...)
And still you crawl under my skin
(There is no rest, you're always there)
There is no rest, you're always there
([?])
You're always there

You're always there
