The Enemy Inside
Over and over againI relive the momentI'm bearing the burden withinOpen wounds hidden under my skin
Pain is real as a cut that bleedsThe face I see every time I try to sleepStaring at me crying
I'm running from the enemy insideLooking for the life I left behindThese suffocating memories are etched upon my mindAnd I can't escape from the enemy inside
I sever myself from the worldAnd shut down completelyAll alone in my own living hellOvercome with irrational fear
Under the weight of the world on my chestI buckle and break as I try to catch my breathTell me I'm not dying
I'm running from the enemy insideLooking for the life I left behindThese suffocating memories are etched upon my mindAnd I can't escape from the enemy inside
I'm a burden and a travestyI'm a prisoner of regretBetween the flashbacks and the violent dreamsI am hanging on the edge
Disaster lurks around the bendParadise came to an endAnd no magic pillCan bring it back again
I'm running from the enemy insideLooking for the life I left behindThese suffocating memories are etched upon my mindAnd I can't escape from the enemy inside
