Warrior Is A Child


Lately I've been winning battles left and right
But even winners can get wounded in the fight
People say that I'm amazing
I'm strong beyond my years
But they don't see inside of me
I'm hiding all my tears

They don't know
That I come running home when I fall down
They dont know
Who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
For deep inside this armour, the warrior is a child.

Unafraid because this armor is the best
But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
People say that Im amazing
I never face retreat
But they dont know the enemies
That lay me at His feet

They don't know
That I come running down when I fall down
They dont know
Who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and look up for a smile
For deep inside this armour, the warrior is a child.

I'm finding my way back to sanity, again
Though I don't really know what
I am gonna do when I get there
Take a breath and hold on tight
Spin around one more time
And gracefully fall back in the arms of grace

I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to sit
Outside Heaven's door and listen to you breathing
Is where I want to be

I am looking past the shadows
Of my mind into the truth and
I'm trying to identify
The voices in my head
God, which one's you?
Let me feel one more time
What it feels like to feel
And break these calluses off me
One more time

'Cause I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to sit
Outside your door and listen to you breathing
Is where I want to be

I don't want a thing from you
Bet you're tired of me waiting
For the scraps to fall
Off your table to the ground
I just want o be here now
