Dar Williams - It's A War In There lyrics

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 place as 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 now.
