The Briggs - My Own Enemy lyrics

rate me

You make words of hate flow like water Cascading down from my mouth Make no mistake I'm not good for your health I'll make your dreams turn into nightmares I'll turn your mind into stone When that one goes rolling Maybe you'll find one of your own Putting civility to rest Changing hands into fists Turmoil easily erupts I hope the dead can sleep standing up I wouldn't be so paranoid If the world wasn't out to get me I'm so paranoid Now I've become my own enemy Look over my shoulder Is my conscience watching me again? He doesn't understand The means justify the end You could give me love or your warfare You could leave me all alone Nothing stays the same But some things never seem to change It's impossible to trust Such friendly enemies You can bury secrets deep But they never will be put to sleep
