The Battle (Flying Over Your Head)
What if all this time all it's ever been is in my head
What if all the while I've been pondering a different kind of friend
When your brain is to the body what the mind is to the soul
You can feel yourself losing control
When your love is to your hate what your faith is to your love
Well then you're doing it wrong
If he can get into your head, he can get into your behavior
If he can wipe you off the face of the earth, he can cradle your fear
Well if all of this is real, then I don't want a part of it
You're an angel fallen down, and I'm a man flying over your head
What if all this time I've been living just to let you in
What if all the while I've been running around in circles
Why then do I feel like I've been feeling better than I've ever been before
Why then do I choose to lie and say that I'm always gonna be alright
If he can get into your head, he can get into your behavior
If he can wipe you off the face of the earth, he can cradle your fear
Well if all of this is real, then I don't want a part of it
You're an angel fallen down, and I'm a man
The Battle's only begun
Of what I can see, it isn't done
So put on your armor
You're Arthur, gotta slay them all down
You're in The Battle to win
To fight to kill is to sin
So fight with all your love
Gotta slay them all down
But the Battle's all in your head
You can't just fight it till it's dead
You must defend with all your might
Gotta slay them all down
The Battle's all a lie
So fight with your eyes to the sky
It's shining down, shining down
He's shining on down
If he can get into your head, he can get into your behavior
If he can wipe you off the face of the earth, he can cradle your fear
Well if all of this is real, then I don't want a part of it
You're an angel fallen down, and I'm a man flying over your head
What if all the while I've been pondering a different kind of friend
When your brain is to the body what the mind is to the soul
You can feel yourself losing control
When your love is to your hate what your faith is to your love
Well then you're doing it wrong
If he can get into your head, he can get into your behavior
If he can wipe you off the face of the earth, he can cradle your fear
Well if all of this is real, then I don't want a part of it
You're an angel fallen down, and I'm a man flying over your head
What if all this time I've been living just to let you in
What if all the while I've been running around in circles
Why then do I feel like I've been feeling better than I've ever been before
Why then do I choose to lie and say that I'm always gonna be alright
If he can get into your head, he can get into your behavior
If he can wipe you off the face of the earth, he can cradle your fear
Well if all of this is real, then I don't want a part of it
You're an angel fallen down, and I'm a man
The Battle's only begun
Of what I can see, it isn't done
So put on your armor
You're Arthur, gotta slay them all down
You're in The Battle to win
To fight to kill is to sin
So fight with all your love
Gotta slay them all down
But the Battle's all in your head
You can't just fight it till it's dead
You must defend with all your might
Gotta slay them all down
The Battle's all a lie
So fight with your eyes to the sky
It's shining down, shining down
He's shining on down
If he can get into your head, he can get into your behavior
If he can wipe you off the face of the earth, he can cradle your fear
Well if all of this is real, then I don't want a part of it
You're an angel fallen down, and I'm a man flying over your head
