Better Off In The End
A battle rages
Turmoil runs rampant
My heart knows what it wants
My mind knows it cant have it
Kind and vicious memories
To which ones do I cling
You pick me up to watch me fall
My love never meant a thing
Between my heart and my mind
This fight goes on and on
It will soon be known for certain
Which is weak and which is strong
This eternal crusade of war
Relentless in it’s quest
My heart says it’s worth fighting for
My mind says to put it to rest
My heart knows deep inside
That this time my mind is right
My mind knows that my heart
Could have easily won this fight
Finally the war is over inside
It’s time for me to mend
It took so long to get over you
But I’ll be better off in the end
