My Own Worst Enemy

My gears turn power my machine
You say I've got some screws loose don't know what you mean
Design dictates function so why am I built to be a fucking mess
I left my lights on hoping you would see
But it's way to bright in this luminescent scene
It hurts my eyes but at least it doesn't scorn my flesh

I'm way too caught up in the past I think I need some more here and now
Those letters I sent you charred so fast I envy how you burn it all down

My own worst enemy
I know the best ways to tear myself down
Lights out and now I see
That you need me more than ever now
You're the best part of me
We'd never be apart if life would allow
Won't find the best in me
But I promise that it's not cuz I won't let it out

Move on
The past will never last like a splash within a lake
I think you chose wrong
I know it's not enough but I give all that I can take

It's a nuisance think I need some new sense
My pocket filled with 6 cents I guess that I could have less
Been feeling pretty useless a life without a 6th sense
Is really something fruitless but what is there to do I guess
I could go to sleep again just to wake up in this bed
Feeling like I should be dead, filled with blood I should've bled
I'm alone inside my head this reality is dread
There's an ever looming fear that tomorrow's not the end

My own worst enemy
I know the best ways to tear myself down
Lights out and now I see
That you need me more than ever now
You're the best part of me
We'd never be apart if life would allow
Won't find the best in me
But I promise that it's not cuz I won't let it out
