What are we fighting for? A war was waged for nothing at all Now I must sit in your prison Of mental distractions and mental distress Let all the smoke dissipate Let all your words permeate So I can turn them away 'Cause it takes its toll on me It takes its toll on me Now I'm turning the corner All my mistakes are pointing their fingers The things you said to me never kept me afloat I'm drawing blood from my heart to keep this thing alive Let all the smoke dissipate Let all your word permeate So I can turn them away 'Cause it takes its toll on me It takes its toll on me ♪ Well I guess you know it's all coming down Right before I had to whisper "I love you" Well you know, I guess it comes with a fault I'm falling into your schemes ♪ Let all the smoke clear away Let all your words permeate So I can turn them away 'Cause it takes its toll on me It takes its toll on me It takes its toll on me It takes its toll on me
