Own Worst Enemy
I'm my own worst enemy
I don't need a frenemy
Inner battles wage
Trapped within my own cage
I know there's light but it's getting hard to see
I've been searching but still can't find me
Once upon a time I used to be strong
Where in the hell did it all go so wrong
Dark thoughts are plaguing me got me feeling real low
Self pity party train better riding solo
I want to go up but I'm spiraling down
Sounds of screaming echoes I can't drown
Walking around with my head hung in vain
I've got to find a way to end all this pain
The sun is shining but I hide behind the clouds
All of these voices they're getting too loud
Please send my guardian angels fast
I'm not sure how much longer I can last
Dear Lord please restore my strength and give me something to believe in
For all of my loved ones this is a battle I surely must win
