Close Enemies
There’s light at the end of the tunnelThere’s fight at the heart of a struggleYou’re smile should’ve told me you’re troubleNo more, no more, no moreYou owned me You buried all my worth with a shovelYou’re smile should’ve told me you’re troubleNo more, no more, no more
No more goodbyes,so so long,so so long,so so long,nowNo more white liesYou used to be the one true thing in my worldYou told me that you loved meYou’re in love with yourselfShoulda listen to my motherYou messed around the othersNow you’re dead to meI’ve been sleeping with the enemyShould keep your best friends close byShould keep your best friends close byYou should keep your best friends close byBut keep your enemies closerBut keep your enemies closer
So many evil talents you juggledIt’s fair to say you didn’t act subtleYour smile should’ve told me you’re troubleNo more, no more, no moreCame crashing down I’m staring at rubbleThey need to send you into space in a shuttleYour smile should’ve told me you’re troubleNo more, no more, no more
No more goodbyes,so so long,so so long,so so long,nowNo more white liesYou used to be the one true thing in my worldYou told me that you loved meYou’re in love with yourselfShoulda listen to my motherYou messed around the othersNow you’re dead to meI’ve been sleeping with the enemyShould keep your best friends close byShould keep your best friends close byYou should keep your best friends close byBut keep your enemies closerBut keep your enemies closer
Strange and derangedSeek fame was the name of the gameDefeat rivals Abel and KaneGet trophies they’ll look great in a frameWhat would you have done, take all the blame?With your hands held firm over naked flamesBeing grilled now you’re shaking againFaking the pain, dark visions of SatanContemplating, talking man to manShe was a girl on film Duran DuranShe called me her ape man orang-utanMe Tarzan, she JaneTake all the blame I’m the bloke in the chorusWe were sweet once everybody saw usI ain’t flawless still unsureI loved us but I loved me more
You used to be the one true thing in my worldYou told me that you loved meYou’re in love with yourselfShoulda listen to my motherYou messed around the othersNow you’re dead to meI’ve been sleeping with the enemyShould keep your best friends close byShould keep your best friends close byYou should keep your best friends close byBut keep your enemies closerBut keep your enemies closer
