Maybe there's a reason
That we've fallen to these depths
If I treat it like it's me then
Well, at least we stand a chance
I can feel my heart at war
Who I am; who I could be
The split of bad and good
Is the line that runs between
My God sings out a love song
To this heart so drawn to hell
He calls for reformation
So I'll speak the ancient spell

Give me a sword, I'll make war on myself
These eyes open wide
They see straight down to hell
That dragon is lurking
And it's in the heart of every man
The answer is waiting, it's just gotta be said
To live like your life's
Worth the death that's ahead
The spirit is willing
And it's in the heart of every man

The king and all his monsters
Are all beating down my home
But I'm much less scared of them than
All the demons in my soul
They've given me these eyes
So, I'll face what's to be seen
And they've blessed me with these ears
So, I'll hear the prophet's sing
The widows and the orphans
Are all fending for themselves
If we insist on making war then
Make it on these feats of hell

Give me a sword and I'll do it myself
These eyes open wide
They see straight down to hell
That dragon is lurking
And it's in the heart of every man
The answer is waiting, it's just gotta be said
To live like your life's
Worth the death that's ahead
The spirit is willing
And it's in the heart of every man

Soon every knee's gonna crash to the floor
We'll finally see
What we've been fighting for
The battle is ending
And the sword is held by He who was before
That fiery serpent's gonna try to bow out
I'll give up my sword
Bow my head to the ground
Cause I'm just a soldier
And here comes the one I've been fighting for
