Into the Loving Arms of Your Enemy
And so this is blood
Some kind of war
You know I'd walk to hell and back for more
Then sweet relief
Gracious in defeat
I'll crawl on a bed of nails if you let me speak
I bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
To be despised
Some Anti-Christ
You feign outrage, but underneath you're smiling
Oh, you gotta hang
Guess that's too bad
But I got a heart that you don't want to rival
Oh, bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
So now we're here
The battle's won
My knees are weak and my heavy arms are gone
I've got to say
You play a good game
I think you knew the outcome all along
Keep your demons strong
But keep your angels clean and sober
Keep your friends so close
But keep your enemies much closer
Ooh
Oh, I bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy, ooh
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Some kind of war
You know I'd walk to hell and back for more
Then sweet relief
Gracious in defeat
I'll crawl on a bed of nails if you let me speak
I bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
To be despised
Some Anti-Christ
You feign outrage, but underneath you're smiling
Oh, you gotta hang
Guess that's too bad
But I got a heart that you don't want to rival
Oh, bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
So now we're here
The battle's won
My knees are weak and my heavy arms are gone
I've got to say
You play a good game
I think you knew the outcome all along
Keep your demons strong
But keep your angels clean and sober
Keep your friends so close
But keep your enemies much closer
Ooh
Oh, I bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy, ooh
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Into the loving arms of your enemy
