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 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 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 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
