On Guard

[Verse] Caught in your game so hard to see Always on guard no time to breathe Your words they cut deep like a knife Stealing the spark out of my life Guarding my heart every day and night Always watching out for the hidden fight Shield up high can't let it down In this world no one's wearing a crown [Chorus] I'm drained drained from your demands No strength to take a stand I'm drained drained from your ways Caught in your never-ending maze On guard every moment like a warrior in a cage Can't be taken down gotta power through the rage Guard up strong can't let them inside On guard on guard through this endless ride [Verse 2] Always demanding wanting more Lost in your world heart feeling sore Your ego big it fills the room Shadowing light in constant gloom Trust is a game that they like to play Faked emotions just to make you stay Gotta stay sharp emotions on hold Keep the fire but don't let it unfold [Chorus] I'm drained drained from your demands No strength to take a stand I'm drained drained from your ways Caught in your never-ending maze On guard every moment like a warrior in a cage Can't be taken down gotta power through the rage Guard up strong can't let them inside On guard on guard through this endless ride [Bridge] Need to find a way out of here Push through the haze push through the fear Seeking the light hoping to find A piece of peace a quiet mind Stand tall don't fall through the traps they set Mind stays clear can't live in regret Emotions drain but I won’t lose On guard forever it's the path I choose [Verse 3] Emotional toll that I can't bear It's like you never really care Running in circles round your mind Leaving my own soul far behind Whispers around trying to change my view Can't let 'em win gotta see what’s true Every promise just a fleeting mist In this game gotta know how to twist [Chorus] I'm drained drained from your demands No strength to take a stand I'm drained drained from your ways Caught in your never-ending maze On guard every moment like a warrior in a cage Can't be taken down gotta power through the rage Guard up strong can't let them inside On guard on guard through this endless ride
