The Enemy Within |
Things crawl in the darkness |
That imagination spins |
Needles at your nerve ends |
Crawl like spiders on your skin |
Pounding in your temples |
And a surge of adrenaline |
Every muscle tense to face the enemy within |
I’m not giving in to security under pressure |
I’m not missing out on the promise of adventure |
I’m not giving up on implausible dreams |
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes |
Suspicious looking stranger |
Flashes you a dangerous grin |
Shadows across your window |
Was it only trees in the wind? |
Every breath a static charge |
A tongue that tastes like tin |
Steely-eyed outside to hide the enemy within |
I’m not giving in to security under pressure |
I’m not missing out on the promise of adventure |
I’m not giving up on implausible dreams |
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes |
To you, is it movement or is it action? |
Is it contact or just reaction? |
And you… revolution or just resistance? |
Is it living, or just existence? |
Yeah, you! |
It takes a little more persistence |
To get up and go the distance |
I’m not giving in, I’m not missing out |
I’m not giving up on implausible dreams |
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes |
I’m not giving in to security under pressure |
I’m not missing out on the promise of adventure |
I’m not giving up on implausible dreams |
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes |
