Envy Lyrics - Singles - Youth Of Today

Constant competition and criticism between friends 

We'll bite and fight with our might untill we win in the end 

I've got one up on you, you've got one up on me 

Overlooking each other's worthy qualities 

I'm sorry it's got a hold of me 

And I pray I can shake free 

It'll damage my pride, It'll hurt me 

So tangled up in envy 

I lash out at you, you strike back at a chance 

Low blows, anything goes at each other's expense 

Choosing up teams, we're picking up sides 

We try to nudge, and we won't budge an inch for our pride 

Conceit, false prestige 

Same old story, hunt for glory 

Will I ever see humility? 

And will it ever manifest in me?/ 

And when the damage is done, no one won 

And that's our idea of fun 

...enough 

Envy from the final Youth Of Today 7", lyrics by Ray of Today.
