Listen up
There's not a moment to spare
It's quite a drop
From the top
So how you feeling down there
It's a cold, cruel, harsh reality
Caught, stuck, here with your enemies
Who do you think you are!
Tearing us all apart
Where did you think you could go?
'Cause everyone already knows
It's twenty to one
Yeah, so you better run
You got the world on its knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (You want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
But enemies
You started something that you just couldn't stop
You turn the ones that you love
Into the angriest mob
And the one, last, wish is that you pay for it
And there's, no, way you're getting out of this
Who do you think you are
Tearing us all apart
Where did you think you could go
'Cause everyone already knows
It's twenty to one
Yeah so you better run
You got the world on its knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (you want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (you want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
But enemies
Enemies
Enemies!!!
Where did you think you could go
'Cause everyone already knows
It's twenty to one
Yeah so you better run
You got the world on its knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (you want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (you want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You got the world on its knees
You're taking all that you please
You want more (you want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
You're like the burden we bear
You love the hate that we share
You want more (you want more)
But you'll get nothing from me
But enemies
Enemies
Enemies!!!
