Dar Williams - It's A War In There lyrics

Well you have been kind, and I know it seems hopeless

You smooth the ground, tear the knots all apart

You're helping me move from the inside to the outside

You're trying so hard and I can't even start

It's a war in there

It's a war in there

Do peacemakers go to the same place as soldiers

If you want to make peace, then you gotta find the pain

And you bring your words, but you're just like them,

you're unprepared

Cause you don't know the terrain

It's a war in there

It's a war in there

And don't you know I'll never give you a medal

Made back on stateside in the central time zone

The one that they pin to the outside, to the outside

And it leads you all the way home

(It's a war in there)

(It's a war in there)

But you can hold me now

You can hold me now
