My mind is a gathering place
For these thoughts running wild
Thoughts that can't be ignored
They're both x-rated and spiritually mild
Thoughts of you, your body, your smell
All in one corner of this boxing ring
Thoughts of the Gospel and the peace that dwells
In the other corner to battle it out for the win
Why can't these thoughts get along in one space?
It's either one or the other
Never combining forces in this place
The battle is raging, ever raging
Today I choose one side, tomorrow another
As insanity creeps in and I lie shaking
I call for help, peace, I just need to smother
These thoughts that keep pulling me in every direction
Come hold me and calm my shaking soul
Sing me a song to dull this pain
This battle will rage on, like swirling water in a toilet bowl
Until I am no more..but, I have no end
So, rage on, this battle of mine
Storm this gathering place in my head
"Love is a Battlefield", this is the song this time
A song for every thought..every thought
The music won't die down
These chains won't be set free
Until I choose a side forever
And forever be stuck in this sea
Of deep sorrow for love lost on the other side
Of this raging battle for my selfish pride
No need to mourn for little ol' me
I'll be battling these thoughts
Cause they're a part of me
Today I choose one, tomorrow another
This gathering place isn't for the weak
So please don't bother
Come in if you love me enough to get hurt
Come in to this gathering place
All thoughts are welcome
But, put on your gloves and watch for cheap hits
I know, it's not fair... no really...it's the shits
