Rise again to face the day

With a knife in my back, spine, mind
Insults my life, my name, my rage
And bites like pain, a war, Conflict

Is it a price? Is it a curse?
Spasms swell like rock. I turn to
stone, and then I'm at home, low, dire, spiteful
Resentment, brave, profound, Conflict
How long can this go on?

Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Post of regret
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Recovery slip
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
A pause for the betterment
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Dwell on the negative

I am the one. The decider. I am the fun. The destroyer
Buried inside like a time bomb
I am a blitzkrieg made of one

I am the stun. And the stunned. I define fury. As in furious
Damage the face. Ball up the name
given the kiss of chronic pain

Tazed awake. Every fucking day of my life
Nerve. Damage. Screams in waves as I lie as back
Flat the stab, the control, the tripwire. Conflict
How far deep is this scar?
Thrashing under pariah smoke sheets. Shit
Hoping somehow someone might see my arm waving
a flag of surrender
I'm Mia in Conflict
Was it a mistake? Is it on purpose
To try and keep me in check?

Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Three level fuse
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Titanium screws
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Rebuild the veteran
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Dwell on the negative

I am the one
The excluded. I am an animal. That has been wounded
My insignificance is significant. Tirade in flight, wings spanned
I cannot fly without looking down. I cannot fly without looking down
I cannot fly. I cannot fly. I cannot fly. I cannot fly
I cannot fly
In conflict
I cannot fly like this

Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Three pills a pop
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Titanium clock
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Ruin the veteran
Conflict... Conflicting... Conflict
Dwell on the negative
