Well you have been kind, and I know it seems helpless,
You smooth the ground, tear the knots all apart,
You're helping me move from the inside to the outside,
You're trying so hard and I can't even start,
It's a war in there, it's a war in there.

Well you peacemakers go to the same plae as the soldiers,
If you want to make peace, well you gotta find the pain,
And you bring your words, but you're just like them,
you're unprepared,
Cause you don't know the terrain.
It's a war in there, it's a war in there.

And don't you know, I'll never give you a medal,
Made back on stateside in the central time zone,
The one that they pin to the outside, to the outside,
And it leads you all the way home.
It's a war in there, it's a war in there.

But you can hold me now.
You can hold me no
