American singer-songwriterDar Williams lives at the intersection of popand folk. She fuses many genres (blues, rock, jazz), resulting in a rather organic sound. She has been making music for over a decade. Her most recent studio album, "My Better Self," finds Dar at an unequivocally brazen crossroads. Reflecting on American politics, the disillusionment and apathy of youth, and the female experience, Dar makes no apology for her outspoken beliefs.

It's A War In There Lyrics
Dar Williams
Well you have been kind, and I know it seems helpless,
You smooth the ground, tear the knots all apart,
You're helping me move from the inside to the outside,
You're trying so hard and I can't even start,
It's a war in there, it's a war in there.
Well you peacemakers go to the same plae as the soldiers,
If you want to make peace, well you gotta find the pain,
And you bring your words, but you're just like them,
you're unprepared,
Cause you don't know the terrain.
It's a war in there, it's a war in there.
And don't you know, I'll never give you a medal,
Made back on stateside in the central time zone,
The one that they pin to the outside, to the outside,
And it leads you all the way home.
It's a war in there, it's a war in there.
But you can hold me now.
You can hold me now.
