Lyrics

I look around and see

I observe my surroundings.

All of these different places

Various locations catch my attention.

And I can't help but think

I can't help but consider.

All of these different faces

Diverse faces are noticed.

Have made the same mistake

People have made the same errors.

And got up and walked away

They have faced challenges and moved on.

You'll never here me say

I won't express the need to leave.

Its time to walk away

Not ready to give up or quit.


Why am I so afraid when I've got nothing to fear?

Despite having nothing to fear, I feel fear.

How did it dissipate? How did it all disappear?

How did everything disappear?

When I anticipate this time I won't shed a tear

This time, I won't cry when anticipating.

I let it resonate for everybody to hear

I allow my emotions to resonate for everyone.


Somebody tell how to save me from myself

Seeking guidance to save myself from destructive tendencies.

'Cause my worst enemy is staring back at me

The biggest obstacle is my own reflection.

Somebody tell me how to save me from myself

Looking for a solution to prevent self-sabotage.

Cause every time that I try it's such a tragedy

Every attempt to change ends tragically.


If I'm the opposition

Despite being the opposition, why can't I yield?

Why can't I just back down

Reluctant to step back.

So full of ammunition

Loaded with criticism aiming to bring me down.

That tries to shoot me down

Facing repeated challenges.

In all this repetition

A cycle of patterns repeating.

That's going round and round

Submitting to the ongoing cycle.

Submit to my submission

Accepting defeat before facing opposition.

Before I get shot down

Before being defeated, I submit.


Cause all I see is somebody else that's watching at me

Perceiving others watching, feeling like an enemy.

It's the enemy

Identifying the enemy within.


And I know I can see the enemy

Acknowledging the presence of an internal adversary.
