Woman at War

I see the fire in your eyes
That she tried to put out so many times
All the struggles that you shared
Oh you wouldn't be you without them

Your body is a battlefield
You keep it open till it breaks down
Letting other people walk over
When standing up is getting too hard

But you are the antidote
In this world of wars
You're fighting it by the throat
Trying to hide your scars

Oh I don't want to be a woman at war
I don't want to be a woman at war

You let yourself go down
Deeper down than where you started
The truth in all this mess
Is the only way your back faces

Your body is a battlefield
You keep it open till it breaks down
Letting other people walk over
When standing up is getting too hard

But you are the antidote
In the world of wars
You're fighting it by the throat
Trying to hide your scars

Oh I don't want to be a woman at war
I don't want to be a woman at war

Unless I fight for myself
Unless I fight with love
Unless I fight for other women

Yeah youare the antidote
That I adore
And I want to let you know
They've been here before

Yeah you are the antidote
In this world of wars
You're fighting it by the throat
Trying to hide your scars

And I don't want to be a woman at war
I don't want to be
