Jay Parish - Like The Enemy Lyrics

I remember the wrongs
But I forgot the reasons
Too many promises that I
Had no intention of keeping

Too many mistakes I made
On purpose
And my heart broke too many times
But I deserved it

I try to push it out of my mind
That only lasts for a minute
No matter how hard I try
My denial has its limits

I hope there's a god up there
I really hope he'll listen
'Cause I have a whole lot of sins
That need to be forgiven

Oh, I'm trying to run away
From my own memory
I'm worried that the old me
Is all I'll ever be

And my demons are always
One step ahead of me
Now I'm seeing myself like the enemy
The enemy
Now I'm seeing myself like the enemy

Everything I'm supposed to defend
I destroyed
And every little bit of revenge
I enjoyed

Too many things that I
Never said sorry for
And too many apologies
That don't work anymore

I try to push it out of my mind
That only lasts for a minute
No matter how hard I try
My denial has its limits

I hope there's a god up there
I really hope he'll listen
'Cause I have a whole lot of sins
That need to be forgiven

Oh, I'm trying to run away
From my own memory
I'm worried that the old me
Is all I'll ever be

And my demons are always
One step ahead of me
Now I'm seeing myself like the enemy
The enemy
Now I'm seeing myself like the enemy

Could you stay with me
'Cause I really need your help
Could you please forgive me
'Cause I can't forgive myself

Could you stay with me
'Cause I really need your help
Could you please forgive me
'Cause I can't forgive myself
