My Own Worst Enemy

In the roses, in the spring, I remember

There was a time

I wasn't afraid of anything

But with the lilacs and the rain

One day, you went away, I remember

I forgot everything

My mother's always trying to tell me

How to be grateful, how to believe

My father's always trying to say

"Baby, you're beautiful in every way"

My lover's always got me in his arms

Trying to protect me, keep me from harm

So why do I always have to be

My worst, my own worst enemy?

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

Enemy (my worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

Whoa (my worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

Enemy (my worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

In the shadows, in the grays, in the lonely

There is a place

Where we can all hide away

But in the windows of the soul

There is nowhere we can go if we keep running

Running from our destiny

My mother's always trying to tell me

How to be grateful, how to believe

My father's always trying to say

"Baby, you're beautiful in every way"

My lover's always got me in his arms

Trying to protect me, keep me from harm

So why do I always have to be

My worst, my own worst enemy?

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy) oh

My worst, (I'm) my own worst enemy

My worst, (I'm) my own worst enemy

You say I walk on water, you say I walk on the moon

But it's never enough, no, it's never enough, no, it's never enough

You say I'm only human, it's all in my head

But it's never enough, no, it's never enough, no, it's never enough

One day, I'll find my alibi

My mother's always trying to tell me

How to be grateful, how to believe

My father's always trying to say

"Baby, you're beautiful, baby, you're-"

My lover's always got me in his arms

Trying to protect me, keep me from harm

So why do I always have to be

My worst, my worst enemy?

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

My worst, (I'm) my (own) worst enemy

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

I wasn't a friend, no, I wasn't a friend (my worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy)

My worst, (I'm) my own worst enemy

My worst, (I'm) my own worst enemy

(My worst, I'm my own worst enemy) oh

My worst, my own worst (enemy), whoa

My worst, my own worst (enemy), whoa

My worst, my own worst (enemy)

(My worst, my own worst enemy)
