Common Enemy

People from the buildings are running for their cars as the rain falls
And pours down on the boulevard
There's posters in the gutters and workers running for the bus
For the dark ride that takes
Them back where they belong
As you lie in arms of strangers wondering if you're still in danger
As they lie to you and say
How lucky you have been
Are you cold when I'm not there?
And is the whiskey playing fair when you're dreaming of
Hopes that disappeared
I know there's cops who wake up scared
They never drive they only ride on the passenger side and wait for Retirement
All I want to do is tell them, is that love will cure is all
Like a dungeon with a locked up state of
Mind

So take it out on me, come together through a common enemy
Can you take my hand, can't forget differences until we understand

Death is flawlessly designed. We all persistently decline
But our freedoms, why do we always redefine
Like a friend that you can't keep that leaves you for the endless sleep
The stars are spinning, they can't align now anyway
My best friend bled into a letter. It went unread, it's probably better
Empty promises, and saying he would change
And he bought a pretty dress, but she still wasn't impressed
Hold hands and walk along, but she had to run away
Go to war a thousand times, CNN can do the math
I never told you because I figured you would
Laugh
All I want to tell the world, is that love will cure is all
Like a dungeon with a locked up state of
Mind

So take it out on me, come together through a common enemy
Can you take my hand, can't forget differences until we understand

So take it out on me, come together through a common enemy
Can you take my hand, can't forget differences until we understand
