It's a battle all my own
But steadfast right by my side
Best friend I've ever known
You've always had my back
Lost my stability
Straight down bloodied up my face
Pick myself up again
But wind up on two feet
It's a battle all my own
Machinery you can't control
Others complain about their worst
Troubles you wish were your own
As the seasons roll on by
You realize you're getting older
It's a battle all my own
What have I learned
Best friend I've ever known
The innocence as we've grown
Been beaten down before
Her good luck brings me home
Through good times and betweeen
The bad times made the difference
I slept wel constantly
Knowing you'll never leave
There was strangers in our midst
But steadfast right by my side
Had many enemies
You always had my back
It's a battle all my own
Machinery you can't control
Others complain about their worst
Troubles you wish were your own
As the seasons rolll on by
You realize you're getting older
It's a battle all my own
What have I learned
The stares
The glares
The battle and fights
This malice
Put upon you can't be all right
The trouble
The ill intent
I'm sorry for you
Never yet again
Rearranging the truth
She holds my head up high
When I can't see
She fills my mind with thoughts
Good memories
She shuts me up when I'm screaming angry
She gives me guidance when I have no peace
You stayed in my corner to fight
Stayed by my side I'm so tired
Stayed by my wrongs and by my rights
It's a battle all my own
Machinery you can't control
Others complain about their worst
Troubles you wish were your own
As the seasons roll on by
You realize you're getting older
It's a battle all my own
What have I learned
