The Enemy

As the night enters this cold, dark day.
You tighten your grip around my waist.
I can’t seem to breathe anymore
Oh father help me,
I’ve been caught in a trap
And it seems I won’t get out alive

Father help me
I’ve been caught in a trap
And it seems that I won’t get out alive
And where words are restrained,
My eyes speak out.
But I could never reveal
The oppression that shackles my mind

Deafened ears to what I believe in
You can’t build a foundation alone
Deafened ears to what I believe in
You can’t make up my life and call it your own
So take your time and let me know
When you’re done wasting mine
I’ve put my faith in us while you were
Laughing at me, well now I can see

All this time, asking respect
And trust, well not anymore
All my life, searching for someone
And now I know, you’re not the one
Only the weak trade pity for lust
I found the hard way,
You are the enemy
You are the enemy

It’s plain to see you’re no part of the family
I found the hard way,
You are the enemy
It’s plain to see see you’re no part of the family
I found the hard way,
You are the enemy

And where words are restrained,
My eyes speak out
But I could never reveal the oppression
So take your time and let me know
When you’re done wasting mine
I’ve put my faith in us while you were
Laughing at me, well now I can see
All this time, asking respect
And trust, well not anymore
All my life, searching for someone
And now I know, you’re not the one
