Imaginary-Enemy - Monkey Mind Lyrics

Always
I hear a voice inside me
It says
To be afraid
No matter
How I try to hide
All eyes
Looking at me
Betray
My sense of confidence
Instinct
To run away
The pills
Help me control my life
But still
It's hard to get out of this shell

Attack
This life with all my mind
My brain
Can't work that way
Mistakes
They always seem to haunt me
My face
Gives me away
Betray
My sense of confidence
Instinct
To run away
The pills
Help me control my life
But still
It's hard to walk out of my door

Curse my monkey mind
Every time I push it down
It grows
Never get it right
Stuck inside my own head
I know
Curse my monkey mind
Every time I push it down
It grows
Never get it right
Stuck inside my own head
I know

I do this every time
Can't stand and face my life
When things are going right
I self destruct
I do this every time
Can't stand and face my life
When things are going right
I do this every time
Can't stand and face my life
When things are going right
I self destruct
I do this every time
Can't stand and face my life
When things are going right
I self destruct

Curse my monkey mind
Every time I push it down
It grows
Never get it right
Stuck inside my own head
I know
Curse my monkey mind
Every time I push it down
It grows
Never get it right
Stuck inside my own head
I know

My mind is all around me
Begging me to give up
Give up
Give up
Don't even try
