Lyrics
Allies Or Enemies
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.
The words I speak are wildfires and weeds
They spread like some awful damn disease
I swear I didn’t mean what I said
I swear I didn’t mean it
Now listen close
You owe me ears for dropping eaves
Forget it all
You caught me in a moment weak
Sometimes I just can’t help myself
Sometimes I can’t help myself at all
Are we allies or enemies?
This will be the death of me
Remember when
I could tell you not to smile when you were mad?
And you would always crack, and we’d both be laughing in the end
Now you’re not so quick to forget
Are we allies or enemies?
This will be the death of me
This will be the death of me
All is fair in love and war, but I can’t fight with you anymore
This will be the death of me
What happens now?
Do we have another go?
Do we bow out and take our separate roads?
I’ll admit I’ve had my doubts
But I want to be let in not out
But I want to be let in not out
Are we allies or enemies?
This will be the death of me
This will be the death of me
All is fair in love and war, but I can’t fight with you anymore
This will be the death of me
Are we allies or enemies?
This will be the death of me
