Your Own Worst Enemy

In the pink, in the flush of life

Run away from yourself (Run away from yourself)

Mustn't think, mustn't contemplate

Playing havoc with your health

I can't believe your double meanings

I didn't think you had those leanings

I must've been a bitter disappointment to you

Here comes that horrible feeling

You're your own worst enemy

My words just bounce off the ceiling

Here we go again, hide the anger, let's pretend

Pepper me with alternatives

Nothing genuine to say (Nothing genuine to say)

Just a lapse into bad taste

You could call it snobbery

I can't believe your double meanings

I didn't think you had those leanings

I can't believe your hidden meanings

It's hard work, all this deceiving

Here comes that horrible feeling

You're your own worst enemy

My words just bounce off the ceiling

Here we go again, hide the anger, let's pretend

Don't try to turn me away now

There is nothing we can't see

Too many voices at play now

To surrender the part of me that won't leave it be

I need you to tell me a story

So that I can get some sleep

Choose something valedictorian

Here comes that horrible feeling

You're your own worst enemy

My words just bounce off the ceiling

You're your own worst enemy

Don't try to scare me away now

There is nothing we can't see

Too many voices at play now

To surrender the part of me that won't leave it be
