Warpaint

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I can feel the enemy Reaching through the mirror, draining me day and night Nothing that was done to me Compares to the terrors dwelling in my state of mind [Refrain] Where's my redemption? Make me a legend My resurrection is in your hands Where's your compassion? Too much aggression I raise my weapons where I stand [Pre-Chorus] So don't you forget where you came from (No) We grew from the ground, from the dirt, yeah If you only knew what you made of (Yeah) You wouldn't doubt that you're ready (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 'Cause you are the warrior, you are the warrior We are the warriors (Ooh-ooh-ooh) You are the warrior, you are the warrior We are the warriors So let them know [Chorus] This blood is my warpaint This sweat is my warpaint These tears are my warpaint, eh, eh So let them know This blood is my warpaint (This is my warpaint) This sweat is my warpaint (This is my warpaint) These tears are my warpaint, eh, eh (This is my warpaint) So let them know [Verse 2] You should never cry for me Bury me a soldier in a uniform of dreams Everything has died in me But I would do it over, every little choice I've made [Refrain] Where's my redemption? Make me a legend My resurrection is in your hands Where's your compassion? Too much aggression I raise my weapons where I stand [Pre-Chorus] So don't you forget where you came from (No) We grew from the ground, from the dirt, yeah If you only knew what you made of (Yeah) You wouldn't doubt that you're ready (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 'Cause you are the warrior, you are the warrior We are the warriors (Ooh-ooh-ooh) You are the warrior, you are the warrior We are the warriors So let them know [Chorus] This blood is my warpaint This sweat is my warpaint These tears are my warpaint, eh, eh So let them know This blood is my warpaint (This is my warpaint) This sweat is my warpaint (This is my warpaint) These tears are my warpaint, eh, eh (This is my warpaint) [Outro] So I learned how to love my battle scars (I love my battle scars) 'Til every cut, every stitch is not ignored (I've gotta learn to love) And I swear I can learn how to love my battle scars (I love my battle scars) I know I'll never find my peace without the war (I've gotta learn to love) Until I love my battle scars
