War Over Me Lyrics

War Over Me

I'm standing on the front lines
I'm fighting for my soul
I've walked a self-destructive lonely road

I wrap the warning signs
But I was too blind to see
I had to feel the pain
'til I believed

This is war
This is war
Since the day I was born
I will die just to live,just to play

No more fight for my life
'til I wil see the light
This is war
It's war over me
War over me
War over me

My pretty face destruction
My hunger turns to greed
But nothing ever fills this whole in me

Bno peace on the horizon
No peace in anything
I had to hurt myself???
'til I believed

This is war
This is war
Since the day I was born
I will die just to live,just to play

No more fight for my life
'til I wil see the light
This is war
It's war over me
War over me
War over me

This kicked off desperation
Is exactly what I need
I'm crawling out yout name
I'm locked in my own prison
Tell me hope is on the way
Tell me hope is on the way

This is war
This is war
Since the day I was born
I will die just to live,just to play

No more fight for my life
'til I wil see the light
This is war
It's war over me
War over me
War over me
This is war
This is war
Since the day I was born
I will die just to live,just to play

No more fight for my life
'til I wil see the light
This is war
It's war over me
War over me
War over me

This is war
It's war over me
War over me
War over me

War Over Me Song Chart

The F.E.A.R. album was recorded in Las Vegas as producers Kane and Kevin Churko couldn't make it to the band's home city of Sacramento. Vocalist Jacoby Shaddix was nervous about spending time in Sin City as he was trying to maintain a clean and sober lifestyle, but was eventually strengthened by the experience. This was one of the songs the band wrote in the process.

Jacoby Shaddix explained the song's lyrical content to Artist Direct : "I had to go there (Las Vegas) with my armor and protection. I was standing in the middle of the good and the bad and sin and salvation. Those elements were tugging at me."

"Truly, Vegas was the perfect place for me to make this record because it really strengthened me. If I could go out on the road and keep my life together and stay on the right track here in Vegas and enjoy myself, that's it. It's a war out there in this crazy ass world."

Speaking about the song in a live Google+ Hangout session Jacoby Shaddix described this as a "dope track." He added: "I mean, seriously, just big chorus, rad lyrics, great riffs… good drums on it. And it's very adventurous, man. The production that we're getting from the Churkos, it's, like… it's cool, man."
