about

"the battle rages on," speaks to the never ending game of this life, and who is in control of your own! how is it that we can let the beliefs of others, or current trends, dictate our existence? in order to get to where you're going, inevitably mistakes are made along the way, and we all feel the hurt that we inflict on ourselves and on others. in the end, how seriously do you take it? who influences your decisions, if not yourself? everyone has got an opinion...how many cooks do you allow in your own kitchen!?! ~cd

lyrics

are you ready for this game
step right up and try to solve the riddle
do you hunger to ride this train
hold on tight, it’s gonna hurt a little

oh its such a shame
to watch it all fall to pieces
it’s right before you, just in reach
if you only just believe

let it out, hold it in
either way you cannot win
you’re too young, you’re far too old
who’s the one who’s in control
say it once, say it twice
what are you willing to sacrifice
not enough, now you’ve gone too far
and the battle rages on……

no sense in asking yourself why
everyone’s looking for the answer
how they steal and they connive
spreading like a vicious cancer

oh its such a shame
to watch it all fall to pieces
its right before you, just in reach
if you only just believe

let it out, hold it in
either way you cannot win
you’re too young, you’re far too old
who’s the one who’s in control
say it once, say it twice
what are you willing to sacrifice
not enough, now you’ve gone too far
and the battle rages on……
wide awake, still in a haze
desperate to fill the emptiness
on to one “last” mistake
wrestling with your consciousness
scratching, crawling, keep up the pace
reflections reveal the ugliness
missing the truth in your haste
your own strength becomes your weakness

are you ready for this game
step right up and try to solve the riddle
do you hunger to ride this train

hold on tight….
it’s gonna
hurt
a little
