"Enemy" lyrics

"Enemy"

Every time the blood runs to my head, I hear the ring
Something to remind me I'm not dead or caught in between
I listen to the voice and what it says, it's never sweet
Something I was born into, I guess, living in me

No price, nothing I pay will make it alright
Nothing I see will make it lose sight
Nothing I take will make me sleep at night, sleep at night
When I look within I feel like I should be running, running, running, running
I will never sake this feeling 'til I feel nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me, enemy, enemy, enemy
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me, enemy, enemy, enemy

Every time I take another breath, I feel the sting
Everyone around me seems so numb, I feel everything

No price, nothing I pay will make it alright
Nothing I see will make it lose sight
Nothing I take will make me sleep at night, sleep at night
When I look within I feel like I should be running, running, running, running
I will never sake this feeling 'til I feel nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me, enemy, enemy, enemy
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me, enemy, enemy, enemy

Taking my time to untangle the wires and stare into my sanity
Dropping the hammer and pulling the trigger I know now the bullet is me

I'm the enemy inside of me
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me enemy, enemy, enemy
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me enemy, enemy, enemy
