The Enemy Within

Things crawl in the darkness

That imagination spins

Needles at your nerve ends

Crawl like spiders on your skin.



Pou, Pou, Pou

Pounding in your temples

And a surge of adrenalin

Every muscle tense to fence

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.



A 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.



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

Hey, hey, hey yeah.
