Battlefield

Story of my life.

Everyday of my waking life I've been fooled
Trying to climb the highest tree just to be knocked down
To the flatest stone on the ground
Always a new upset, a new striking frown.

Cause It was hard enough standing on two feet
Always protecting my feelings with a different shield
The life I live hasn't been a merry go round
It's been nothing but an ongoing battlefield.

Keeping my head pointed to the sky
Hasn't always been my easiest choice
For the lord above had been hard to talk to
With such a quiet, misunderstood voice.

Not having a hand to hold through this
Has made it easier to fall into the deepest hole
For I'm greatful I'm still alive writing these words
I'm greatful I still have this powerful soul.

Cause It wasn't easy driving through the tornado
Without having someone telling me to yield
Through my life no one could ever warn me
It's been nothing but an ongoing battlefield.

And I know I'll still be around struggling
Because it isn't over yet, I'm still not healed
But as long as I'm still in this burdened body
My life will stay nothing but a battlefield.
