It's a trick the mind plays
To want what you can't have
A foolish circle I walk
To wish on a star so bad
I'm conflicted and confused
But it's only self abuse

I don't know
How far to go
To get away from you
I can't tell why
I'm losing my mind
Over what to do

I'm waging a civil war
Against my heart
Fighting a battle
Cause a part
Wants to be with you
But the other is telling me to
Be smart
Don't know which side to root for
When I'm waging a civil war

My heart and head should
Just call a truce already
Cause my thoughts are
Getting too heavy
I'm in a spiral and a cycle
My souls loading up a rifle

I don't know
How far to go
To get away from you
I can't tell why
I'm losing my mind
Over what to do

I'm waging a civil war
Against my heart
Fighting a battle
Cause a part
wants to be with you
But the other is telling me to
be smart
Don't know which side to root for
When I'm waging a civil war

They say the bloodiest battle
Is the internal one
This is something I can't handle
A war that will never be won

I don't know
How far to go
To get away from you
I can't tell why
I'm losing my mind
Over what to do

I'm waging a civil war
Against my heart
Fighting a battle
Cause a part
wants to be with you
But the other is telling me to
be smart
Don't know which side to root for
When I'm waging a civil war
