Against the Enemy - Civil War Lyrics

I am trapped in shackles
In a house that disallows
Any form of demonstration
Or an outlet that I vowed

But they just keep on yelling
And it's calmness that is lost
I can't attack or punch the wall
I can't afford the cost

They go against their own
For, something that lacks reason
I can't explain or let it out
Cause I was raised on Jesus

But I've never felt his presence
Cause I think this house is cursed
Ever since I was a kid
I wished that it would burst

And I
I wanna run away
I wasted 27 f*cking years
In a family based on a shame

And I
I wanna run away
You're never gonna win a civil war
If you're fed and raised the same

She freaks out over everything
And always puts him down
Good days come and go
But they never stuck around

They raised me with protection
It was always over done
It made me scared to go outside
In fear I'd find a gun

Well, what if I want to rebel
What if I want to meet
The lonely ones with belts and knives
The punks who run the streets

My life was run by everyone
I can't think for myself
This marks the start of my revolt
Relieve my head of hell

And I
I wanna run away
I wasted 27 f*cking years
In a family based on a shame

And I
I wanna run away
You're never gonna win a civil war
If you're fed and raised the same

And I
I wanna run away
I wasted 27 f*cking years
In a family based on a shame

And I
I wanna run away
You're never gonna win a civil war
If you're fed and raised the same
