Elliott Smith - the enemy is you lyrics

you got your head turned 'round walking upside down

through the sunken dream

through the crushing crowd

you don't know what it means 'cause you're a broken machine

you won't lisp it out

you're dressing up your man

it's all second hand

it's all hindsight

you don't understand

it's just an empty scene

it's still an empty scheme

you wanna block it out

but i know what i'm gonna do with this big doubt

i'm gonna make it go away

when you go walking out in

the rose city

without a fucking clue

with an attitude

knowing what you need

what you will not do

the enemy is you

you beat up on yourself 'cause there ain't no one else

who feels quite as good to put straight through hell

you know yourself well

you know what you're about

just wanna block it out

well, i know what i'm gonna do with this big doubt

i'm gonna hide my face away

block it out

well, i know what i'm gonna do with this big doubt

i'm gonna make it go away
