The Enemy

I am what I am
I'm a man who understands
That the welcome will not end
When the lover is your friend
And now that I can see
That the killer here is me
And I think that you'd agree
Sometimes it's better just to bend

Baby, I'm a mess
A coward nonetheless
A stranger to myself
And a danger to your health

I won't take it lightly
This thing that you've given to me
To believe that I'm ready to be
The man that you want me to be...
Instead of the enemy

Don't you wanna feel
The way we used to feel
When the summer was our friend
And we didn't have to steal
Now the words are on your tongue
Just like they were before
I've seen what I've become
Still I'm coming back for more

I won't take it lightly
This thing that you've given to me
To believe that I'm ready to be
The man that you want me to be...
Instead of the enemy

How long must I become
What I've hated for so long

I won't take it lightly
This thing that you've given to me
To believe that I'm ready to be
The man that you want me to be...
Instead of the enemy
