Broken Battle Cry
I'm hard and I'm cold and I act indifferent.
I lock it away, 'cause I don't want to face it all.
But still, I cry.
Why can't it be a battle cry?
I want you, I need you, it's all so easy.
You tell me, I fix it, everything stays inside.
It happens all the time, happens every time.
But things need to change.
Oh, things need to change.
Hear my cry for change.
As my walls come crumbling down,
I look you straight in the eyes
Just as my disguise
Falls away, it falls away.
Now is the time to start it all.
Now is the time to rise not fall.
'Cause I've been waiting.
Waiting for too damn long.
I can do this.
It's time to do this.
Hear my cry.
