Ålter Ego Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 My Greatest Enemy You are my greatest enemy You kick me when I'm down You erase my glowing smiles And turn them into frowns You are my greatest enemy You discourage me at my best You spit at my accomplishments Then dig into my flesh You are my greatest enemy Because of you nothing is what it seems You destroy all of my hopes You awake me from my dreams You are my greatest enemy Because of you I cannot live Because of you I cannot share Because of you I cannot give You are my greatest enemy You're the source of my fears You're the reason why I doubt so much And cry so many tears You are my greatest enemy You keep me from rising above It is because of you That I can never accept love You are my greatest enemy But if only I could see That the way to conquer you Is to conquer the enemy within me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
