Lost in the Battle
Girard
Lost in the Battle
(Verse 1)
I stood tall, I gave it all
Fought every war, no matter how small
Every breath was a sacrifice
Chasing victory at any price
(Pre-Chorus)
But now I stand here, with nothing to hold
The fight is over, but the story’s been told
(Chorus)
I won the battle, but I lost the fight
I thought I’d find peace in the end of the night
But in the ruins, all I see is the cost
I gave everything, but it’s all been lost
I won the battle, but I lost what I knew
The victory’s hollow, and I’m broken in two
(Verse 2)
I fought for the future, I fought for the dream
But somewhere along the way, I lost what it means
The fire I chased burned me to the ground
Now I’m looking for answers, but they can’t be found
(Pre-Chorus)
I thought I was stronger, I thought I was brave
But now I’m left empty, and I’m lost in the grave
(Chorus)
I won the battle, but I lost the fight
I thought I’d find peace in the end of the night
But in the ruins, all I see is the cost
I gave everything, but it’s all been lost
I won the battle, but I lost what I knew
The victory’s hollow, and I’m broken in two
(Bridge)
What’s the point of winning if it tears you apart?
I thought I was gaining, but I lost my heart
The prize I sought, now I can’t even see
And the victory’s weight is crushing me
(Chorus)
I won the battle, but I lost the fight
I thought I’d find peace in the end of the night
But in the ruins, all I see is the cost
I gave everything, but it’s all been lost
I won the battle, but I lost what I knew
The victory’s hollow, and I’m broken in two
(Outro)
I fought for the future, but I’ve lost who I am
Now I’m standing in the wreckage, with no helping hand.
