MUSHROOMHEAD
"The War Inside"

[Intro: Jeffery Nothing]
How could such potential go unrealized
The natives speak in tongues and tangled truths while chanting
Diatribes
Somewhere deep down in the subconscious wrapped in riddles lies
The meaning of this life we try to find but only lose our minds

[Verse One: Jeffery Nothing]
Through my blind desperation soul solely rages on
Social defacing here my replacement comes
Rumors of cutbacks harbored hypocrisy
My heart dwells in darkness
My body imprisons me

[Chorus: J. Mann (Jeffery Nothing)]
Breakdown - all the walls have fallen
(My soul solely rages on)
Storm the palace seize the crown
(Soul solely rages)
Whispered winds soon sound the calling
(My soul solely rages on)
Betray your malice heed your vows
(On)

[Verse Two: Jeffery Nothing]
Victory misery glory defeat
The war inside pushing me
Brings me to bleed
I thank you all for the laughs
Just like the poison in me
Raise a glass for my father then put me to sleep

[Chorus]

[Bridge: J. Mann]
Erase those saccharine smiles vague in their sincerity
Lift these veiled chains in an endless race for clarity
Barely hanging on to a faith I'd briefly known
I've seen an angels face, the broken wings on which she'd flown
Emotion fades to faceless as we soon become sedate
Is it time to mourn this loss or is it time to celebrate

[Bridge: Jeffery Nothing]
How could such potential go unrealized
The natives speak in tongues and tangled truths while chanting
Diatribes
Somewhere deep down in the subconscious wrapped in riddles lies
The meaning of this life we try to find but only lose our minds

[Verse Three: Jeffery Nothing]
Through my blind desperation soul solely rages on
Social defacing here my replacement comes
Rumors of cutbacks harbored hypocrisy
My heart dwells in darkness
My body imprisons me

[Chorus]

[Outro: Jeffery Nothing]
On and on and on and on
Soul solely rages on
