I put on my armour
Strap on my boots
Look around to see which weapons Ill choose
Im going for medals, decoration
Im pulling out from my lonely station
So Ill call you if I need help
Ill call you if I need help
Ill call you if I need help
Im my own worst enemy enemy enemy
Itll be the end of me end of me end of me
And the coast is clear on me clear on me clear on me
Im my own worst enemy
Enemy in an open field
Just leave me alone here
Just leave me alone here
Alone here
Just leave me alone

Here I go again
With my head in my hands
When you say youll call but you dont
And then Ill pretend
This is the last time
That Ill take you back when you say youre sorry
Dont leave me no more
Every time you walk out the door
I dont know if youre gonna come back around here anymore
Dont leave me no more
Every time you walk out the door
I dont know if youre gonna come back to me here anymore
Dont leave
Dont leave
I used to be a queen
But now Im a shadow of me
I deserve more but love is a chore
And wanting you has made me so weak
Im such a fool for you
And you keep playing and playing around
Until the sun comes down and rises again in the morning
And my heart keeps breaking and breaking
And Im tired of wasting and wasting away for a cure
My heart keeps breaking and breaking and breaking down
You keep playing and playing and playing around
BE OK

Meet me in a dream
Meet me in a song
Or in a melody
That lasts too long
But stop
Invading my thoughts
Meet me in a crowd
We wont know if its real
Because were not allowed
To show how we feel
But stop
Invading my thoughts
I know you dont mean to
And all my fronting you see through
But stop
Just stop
Invading my thoughts
