Battle Within is chapter #10 from The Prismatic Odyssey: Inception. Brian Martinez recorded live guitar from the synthetic guitar Black-Striped Prism originally had, and even added the original idea to have an acoustic guitar in the song. Brian also mixed the song.
[Verse]
Confusion is setting in, I can't explain why
Fortune's in motion, but something's not right
Is it my unfamiliarity with success
Or my adjustment to impending loneliness
A curtain could open, revealing darkness
Your innate reaction, embrace my secrets
With each reckless decision I move closer
To permanent adhesion with my entire future
[Chorus]
The internal conflict
{Shreds of glass called my past have scarred me severely)
The Battlе Within
{One by one I've triеd to dispose of them properly)
I feel so numb inside
Why?
[Verse]
These problems surfacing predate your arrival
I've been rotting underground, but you're my revival
Dissatisfaction and happiness mix in me like chemicals
They're reactive, ready to explode
It's you that propels the equation to balance
Adding assurance, substracting reluctance
Involuntarily I act without consulting my conscious
Accurately the fact is I remain loyal and honest
My motives are relevant and genuine
I protect you from me so I'm not a burden
[Chorus]
The internal conflict
{Shreds of glass called my past have scarred me severely)
The Battle Within
{One by one I've tried to dispose of them properly)
I feel so numb inside
Why?
[Bridge]
The internal conflict
The battle within
[Bridge]
Am I unsatisfied
Am i selfish
Am I afraid
Am I impassive
[Outro]
Burn, my retrospective
Learn, my objective
Invest myself entirely in you
Waive, my insecurity
Save me from obscurity
Because I'm fragmentary unless I'm with you
