For the Enemy (Live)
Oh, my enemy
You've got company
You're not alone
They're watching over me
While each town they pass
Fades as it folds
So in the night
While you get lost
You're lost in your fright
What this so in the day?
Softly we'd flow
Floating away
And it pours
From the faucet's mouth
Like our fortune
Comes flowing out
Every trap of which
Without a doubt
Will find us and try us and find us
And finally bring us down, down, down
They'll tie us down
In those fine thin threads
And run their knives
Up and down our saint skin
Until our lives in
Will be out again
So above the sea
On that sunny ledge
And in the day
Softly we'll flow
Floating away
And in the night
We will get lost
Lost in our fright
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
And in the day
Softly we'll flow
Floating away
(Uuh, uuh, uuh)
Thankyou so much
We're called Okkervil River
With sound same factor affect
You've got company
You're not alone
They're watching over me
While each town they pass
Fades as it folds
So in the night
While you get lost
You're lost in your fright
What this so in the day?
Softly we'd flow
Floating away
And it pours
From the faucet's mouth
Like our fortune
Comes flowing out
Every trap of which
Without a doubt
Will find us and try us and find us
And finally bring us down, down, down
They'll tie us down
In those fine thin threads
And run their knives
Up and down our saint skin
Until our lives in
Will be out again
So above the sea
On that sunny ledge
And in the day
Softly we'll flow
Floating away
And in the night
We will get lost
Lost in our fright
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
And in the day
Softly we'll flow
Floating away
(Uuh, uuh, uuh)
Thankyou so much
We're called Okkervil River
With sound same factor affect
