Howard Lawrence - The Enemy Inside lyrics
Your rating:
Someone let you down Dealt you a hand you couldn't play out Made you afraid of life Gave you a reason for raising your knife But something brought you here You don't know what it is or whether it's real Like hourglass sand you're falling through space Searching for clues so you know what to chase Don't look around for a four leaf clover Don't get attached to your fortune cookie Nothing can save you from drowning your faith Or hatching a plot for the ultimate escape But everything you need is there staring back at you Once you let go of the enemy inside Everyone's waitingÂ?...we're all here to catch you So give yourself a giftÂ?â??let go of the enemy inside Swimming against the tide You put your thumb out and got taken for a ride Lost all your dignity The audience laughed at your pleas for humanity Sometimes it helps to eat dirt With a newborn's perspective you'll rarely get hurt Just keep one eye open in case of attack Coz even your friends can put a gun to your back Don't be surprised when the storm flies over Don't burn the leaves on your neighbor's timetable Nothing can keep you from losing your touch Dark chocolate everyday? HmmmÂ?...that's a bit too much! When all you need is me in there staring back at you You can let go of the enemy inside Don't keep us waiting for you to decide Listen to your heartâ??Â?let go of the enemy inside Haven't you made a big fool of yourself? Even a blind man can see you need help Remind me to book the next date So you can rediscover what's been left on your plate Show you the rhythm machine If you get up and dance there's a chance you'll be seen Leave your computer alone It's a crutch and you know itÂ?â??your chair ain't a throne How long has it been? Such a long time to waste Put the glass to your lipsÂ?...all you need is one taste
