Lyrics

enemy

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

They say: Keep your friends close'

But you're closer, I love when you're here

I'm so far away sometimes, I'm distant, yeah

You might help me, intimacy, I'll admit, I'm scared

Maybe, maybe you can reach me, yeah

Maybe you're my enemy

Now I've finally let you come a little close to me, oh

Maybe you're my enemy

I'm the only one who knows the way you're really feelin'

Now it's really clear to me

You could do a little damage, you could pull me deeper

Maybe you're my enemy

Baby, you're my enemy, yeah

Suddenly, you're in my bedroom under my sheets every night

Suddenly, I lose my fear, it feels good, yeah

I feel guilty, I feel nervous, I feel certain now

Maybe, maybe you can reach me, yeah

Maybe you're my enemy

Now I've finally let you come a little close to me, oh

Maybe you're my enemy

You're the only one who knows the way I'm really feelin'

Now it's really clear to me

You could do a little damage, you could pull me deeper

Maybe you're my enemy

Baby, you're my enemy, yeah

Oh, yeah

Yeah, oh

Maybe you're my enemy

Baby, you're my enemy, yeah

So cold at the surface

I'm scared of nothin'

Underneath, I'm nervous

Can you reach me?

So cold at the surface

Told you I'm scared of nothin'

Underneath, I'm nervous, yeah

Can you reach me?

I think a tough journey to be on

Whilst you're around a lot of people

I feel like I'm learning, but I, I doubt myself

And I don't really, really understand it yet

It hurts here, it hurts here

Maybe you're my enemy

Now I've finally let you come a little close to me, oh

Maybe you're my enemy

I'm the only one who knows the way you're really feelin'

Now it's really clear to me

You could do a little damage, you could pull me deeper

Maybe you're my enemy

Baby, you're my enemy, yeah

Can you reach me?

Maybe you're my enemy

Can you reach me?

Baby, you're my enemy, yeah

Can you reach me?

Baby, you're my enemy, yeah

Can you reach me?
