Lyrics

I’m sorry but that war in your head is here to stay

The internal struggle or conflict within your mind is a persistent presence that won't easily go away.

And you’ll grow around it like a tree

You will develop and adapt to this inner conflict, much like a tree grows around obstacles in its path.

Fixing it in place

This conflict becomes a fixed and integral part of who you are.


You’ll find out how it feels to break a heart

You will experience the emotional pain of breaking someone's heart.

And that it suits you so much better

Surprisingly, causing heartbreak may suit your personality or character better than being on the receiving end.

The other way around

The reversed roles, where you're the one causing heartbreak, might be a more comfortable or natural state for you.


You’re not as strange and broken as you think you are

You are not as unusual or damaged as you perceive yourself to be.


You’ll battle with an enemy no one can see

You will face an invisible adversary, a personal struggle that others may not easily understand.

And you’ll forget yourself for a while

In the process, you may lose sight of who you are for a period.

But then you’ll remember

However, you will eventually recollect and rediscover yourself.


You should know that when you wave away the days like flies

When you dismiss or ignore the passing of time, the years will still progress.

The years will also comply

Time won't wait for you, even if you try to overlook or disregard its passage.


All the thrills and defeats you’ll feel flare and subside

The highs and lows you experience will intensify and diminish over time.

You’ll live to see the world end

You will survive to witness catastrophic events, perhaps metaphorically or literally, more than once.

More than one time

Enduring significant challenges and crises will be part of your life.


You’re not as strange and broken as you think you are

Reiteration that your perceived strangeness and brokenness are not as unique as you believe.

Better days are coming than you’ve had so far

Assurance that better days are ahead, surpassing the ones you have experienced so far.
