Battle Worn

[Verse]
Heavy thoughts like anchors
Dragging me down deep
No light no ladder
Can’t find no sleep
Pain’s a shadow
Always there
Gnawing teeth
The night don’t care
I try to breathe try to stand
But this weight’s too much for one hand
[Chorus]
I’m battle worn battle torn
Fightin’ ghosts that don’t die
I’m a soldier in my soul
Marchin’ till the tears run dry
[Verse 2]
Days blur into the grind
Clock hands don’t rewind
Work till I’m a ghost
Break my body but it’s what I know most
Hands are calloused heart’s the same
Every scar’s got a name
No medals for this war I fight
Just me and the dark every night
[Prechorus]
Do they see me? Do they care?
Or am I just a story they don’t share?
