A Whisper Rising Lyrics
"Wars With My Reflection"

I feel like a parasite tonight
And I'm starving for something more
I taste your blood on my lips
It won't be long til I'm bound for the floor
What have I become?

It won't be long til I show you my true colors
Soon enough you will see
All the dirt inside of my heart
You'll see me for what I am tonight
I'm fighting wars with my reflection

Why do I do this to myself?
Always fighting world war me
Cut my throat time and again
Always tripping over my own two feet
How did I acquire this anti-Midas touch?
Step into the sun, see who I've become

Look in my eyes
And see the world outside
It feels like forever
Since I had my own time
Since I had some space to breathe
Look in my eyes
And see the world outside
It's been such a long time

For the first time
In such a long time
I will do this on my own
For the first time
In all my life
I will walk alone tonight
I don't need your arms around me tonight
I've found the strength inside
For the first time
In my lifetime
I will do this on my own
(I walk alone, I walk alone without your love,
without your light to guide me home)
I don't need your light to guide my way tonight
I've found the strength inside
(I walk alone, I walk alone without your love,
without your light to guide me homes)
For the first time in all my life
I will do this on my own
