The Enemy Within Lyrics

Cherry Poppin Daddies The Enemy Within

He's my evil twin.  He's the enemy inside me...
It's me against him and I hate his wicked grin
but we're brothers to the end
He will break your heart but I'll do my best
to stop him.  He's ticking like a bomb
I adore you but he forks his tounge
I'm just not myself today
Not myself today
I try to smile but the creature lurks
right below I can't keep the lid on
of the enemy in my soul
He tears down all the things I've worked so hard for
I'm gonna get my gun and kill the enemy within
Round and around I go
caught by the undertow
I can't escape myself at Midnight
Footsteps and shadows swirl
the Prince of the Underworld
chases me through the fog at Midnight
..at Midnight
..at Midnight
..at Midnight
I'm just not myself today
I'm just not myself today
Not myself today
I'm just not myself today
Not myself today
He wants you to approve
fears he'll be called a failure
He plays cat and mouse with you
But I don't know who is more the fool
his Jekyll or his Hyde
Fly above the multitudes or just give them
what they're used to
He's lit by candlelight and his quill is filled with blood and spite
Round and around I go
caught by the undertow
I can't escape myself at Midnight
Footsteps and shadows swirl
the Prince of the Underworld
chases me through the fog at Midnight
..at Midnight
..at Midnight
..at Midnight
He's my evil twin
He's my evil twin
He's my evil twin
He's my evil twin
He's my evil twin
He's my evil twin
