BATTLE

The Battle 

There's a battle going on inside all of us 

Some people win 

Some people lose 

Than there are people 

Where it's just constant up and down situation. 

The light 

An inner peace 

A constant flow of content 

This is what take over when people win 

Not many people do. 

The darkness 

A sadness 

A total feeling of loss 

This is what takes over when people lose 

Lots of people do. 

The constant war 

The mix up and down 

Of contempt and anguish 

Of peace and calm 

This is when people die trying 

The majority of people do. 

They'll live a constant battle 

Where the stars of hope 

Shine brightly as many times 

As they fade into darkness. 

The people who lose 

Don't realize 

That the darkness is just clouds 

Covering the stars 

They give up waiting 

For the starts to come out again 

So the stars never do. 

The fighters keep wishing 

For the start to come out 

So the stars will 

But they always have feelings of doubt 

That makes it harder for the stars 

But they manage. 

And the people who win ? 

They don't mind a bit of cloudy weather.
