lyrics

verse 1
I'm not the man
I thought I would be,
two shots, yeah
all that I need

another hobby,
practicing what I preach,
I'm staying busy but I
get no relief

time is all I need to waste to get by,
the way that I feel

chorus
I see
that I am running out of reasons to breathe,
You're choking me,
My closest enemy,

verse 2
The store front mannequins look too real at night,
I swear they're watching me with unmoving eyes,
maybe I'm paranoid from all that I fear,
The mannequin begins talking into my ear,

Do you have to act so strong?
The river current could carry you
down to where you belong,

chorus
I see
that I am running out of reasons to breathe,
You're choking me,
My closest enemy,

I can't believe,
That you're the one to do this to me,
I had to be,
My closest enemy.

bridge
Do you have to act so strong?
The river current could carry you
down to where you belong,

Do you have to fight those tears?
The river current could carry you
down to where you belong,

Do you have to play these games?
The river current could carry you
down to where you belong,

chorus
I see
that I am running out of reasons to breathe,
You're choking me,
My closest enemy,

I can't believe,
That you're the one to do this to me,
I had to be,
My closest enemy.
