[Verse 1]
Played out, wide off the mark
Mania develops
Akin to fiction
More than to a world of fact

[Chorus]
My own worst enemy
My own worst enemy
Life's foul treachery
My own worst enemy

[Verse 2]
Dams of emotions build
A dull and turbid screen
Clouding veils of black
In jungles of hopes oppressed

[Chorus]
My own worst enemy
My own worst enemy
Life's foul treachery
My own worst enemy

[Bridge]
So many times
For no reason
So many promised punches
For what reason?
Ceaseless decay
Parallel obscene and flagrant
Ceaseless decay
Restrained my mind coils

So many times
For no reason
So many promised punches
For what reason?

Ceaseless decay
Parallel obscene and flagrant
Ceaseless decay
Restrained my mind coils

[Verse 1]
Played out, wide off the mark
Mania develops
Akin to fiction
More than to a world of fact

[Chorus]
My own worst enemy
My own worst enemy
Life foul treachery
