Franco - Proxy War Lyrics

Now we're here
This is it
Is it everything you ever thought it was?
No?

I've been chasing a life that nobody can endure (nobody, yeah)
I've been fumbling out since the start of this war (fumbling out, war)
No one can help
I'm ready for the (ready for the)
Ready for the war
Nobody help
I'm ready for the (ready for the)
Ready for the war

This is my proxy war
This is my proxy war

War
War

I've been pushing agendas nobody can afford (nobody, afford)
I'm seeing everything clearly no longer being torn (clearly, torn)
No need for help (help)
I'm fighting through the war
Fighting through the war
No need for help
I'm fighting through the (fighting through the)
Fighting through the war

This is my proxy war
This is my proxy war

I've been played in a game to defend against the hoard (defend against the, hoard)
I've been carefully placed in a spot up on this board (upon this, board)

No one but myself
Disassociating
I've been alone at my own cost (at my own cost)

Need to find my way
There's no escape
I'm not okay
I need to find the escape
To someplace safe
I need that

I'm fine
I swear
I'm- I guess, it's great

This is my proxy war

So when you asked me if it was everything I ever wanted
It was no

This is my proxy war

I'm rambling
You said I was controlling
Maybe I am?
I admit I do tend to act a certain way
I never meant to treat you like a puppet
I guess that's all you were to me
