[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
To be despised, some Anti-Christ
You feign outrage, but underneath you're smiling
I ain't got a head, guess that's too bad
But I got a heart that you don't want to rival
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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 played a good game
I think you knew the outcome all along
[Bridge]
Keep your demons strong
But keep your angels clean and sober
Keep your friends so close
But keep your enemies much closer
[Chorus]
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
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Into the loving arms of your enemy
