MY ENEMY

In Gatesville, Texas, north of Fort Hood
Day is long but I did something good
Open door, rain is driving down
Electric sky exploding all around

Ooooh, ooooh

You cut your arms, you're slicin' up your face
Your torn skin's hangin' in disgrace
I hold my ground and now we found love, not war
I said my enemy, I think we've met before
We've met before

You see I know those wrinkles on your forehead
The lost way that you stare
So pull the trigger if you want to
But when it clicks it's you'll be dead, oh
You'll be dead

Across the globe you lost your life one day
I'm sorry friend that's cuz of me
You had hopes and dreams when just a boy but then
You grew to murder families

I knew that someday we're gonna meet again,
'N my enemy you'll make me cry
I'll try to love you in your prison
And when you frail look in my eyes

In my eyes, in my eyes

My enemy, the time is fading
I gotta go, don't let it end
Destiny is calling to you and to me
Just take this hand and call me friend

All your buddies they have left you
Right here just to die,
No one's coming to collect you
But I'm reaching across the sky
Across the sky

I know the wrinkles on your forehead
How lost in the stars you cried
I made a promise not to hurt you
Now my blood is clean I've tried

All the evil that used me
How you left me on that floor
Won't you love again my enemy
Yeah I won't be knocking anymore

Anymore, ooooh
Anymore

I know those wrinkles on your forehead
How lost in the stars you cried
I made a promise not to hurt you
Now my blood is clean I've tried

Yeah all the evil that used me for
How you left me in the cell to die
Won't you love again my enemy
I won't be knocking anymore
Goodbye, it's goodbye
