War of My Life
John Mayer Lyrics

Come out angels
Invoking the good and pure spirits for strength and support.

Come out ghosts
Confronting and dealing with the haunting memories and emotions of the past.

Come out darkness
Facing and overcoming the innermost doubts and fears that shadow the soul.

Bring everyone you know
Elevating one's challenge to a higher level and involving all external and internal resources.

I'm not running
Stating a determined and resolute attitude to face the struggle head-on.

And I'm not scared
Asserting clarity and confidence to overcome the obstacles without hesitation or fear.

I am waiting and well prepared
Implying patience and readiness to engage in the battle, as well as awareness of the stakes involved.

I'm in the war of my life
Acknowledging the intense nature and high stakes of the inner struggle one is currently experiencing.

At the door of my life
Positioning the conflict as a crucial moment in one's journey and development.

Out of time and there's nowhere to run away
Expressing a sense of urgency and lack of escape options, as well as acceptance of the reality of the situation.

I've got a hammer
Metaphorically referring to a strong and precise approach to tackle and break down the obstacles in one's path.

And a heart of glass
Highlighting the delicate and vulnerable nature of the emotions and feelings involved in the struggle.

I got to know right now which walls to smash
Emphasizing the need for clarity and precision in identifying and targeting the weaknesses and barriers to overcome.

I got a pocket
Suggesting a limited and basic set of resources available to face the challenge.

Got no pills
Highlighting the impossibility of relying on external solutions or quick fixes to solve the problem.

If fear hasn't killed me yet
Recognizing the frightening nature of the struggle and acknowledging the resilience so far in the face of it.

Then nothing will
Asserting the determination to face and overcome whatever comes next, regardless of the difficulty.

All the suffering
Acknowledging the intense emotional pain and turmoil involved in the struggle.

And all the pain
Extending the previous line and implying a long history of suffering and adversity leading up to this moment.

Never left a name, oh
Expressing the sense of anonymity and isolation that can come with personal struggles, as well as the desire to be recognized and understood.

At the core of my life
Deepening the metaphor of the struggle as a central and defining aspect of one's existence.

Got no choice but to fight 'till it's done
Emphasizing the sense of obligation, tenacity, and perseverance required in the face of such a difficult challenge.

No more suffering
Expressing the hope and desire for an end to the pain and struggle.

No more pain
Repeating the previous line to reinforce its importance and significance.

So fight on
Encouraging oneself and others to stay strong and resilient in the face of the challenge.

I won't give up
Stating the determination and commitment to see the struggle through to the end.

Fight on everyone
Extending the previous line and inviting others to join in the struggle and support each other.

I won't run
Asserting the willingness to face the challenge head-on without seeking an easy way out.

I won't stop for anyone
Emphasizing the sense of purpose and duty to overcome the challenge, regardless of external pressure or obstacles.
