Lyrics

Enemy

You alone should know

The shit sticks fast

Weighing up the consequences

You made up your mind

To kick my arse

And I was left with no defenses

I am a little screwed around inside

You think I don't remember

But I can't forget the things you did now, can I?

I'm your enemy

I'm your enemy

I'm your enemy

I'm your enemy

Sugar faces, plastic smiles and all

Nothing seems to pacify me

People watch and wait for me to fall

Go ahead, fucking try me

I see the features crack into a grin

And I'm glad you think it's funny

'Cause I'm coming back for something more

And I am not laughing, am I?

I'm your enemy

I'm your enemy

I'm your enemy

I'm your enemy

Yeah

Never

Forget

That

No

No

No

No!

No!

No!

Noooo!

(Noooooo!)
