enemy

after we spoke i had a dream that i broke

the teeth from a mouth of a snake

that i choked on the teeth

they were mine all along

i picked up the pieces when i woke up

put them in a boat made of things that i don't want to see

i blew on the sail

watched it drift out to sea

the further it drifted the closer it came to me

i can't explain

so i took it apart built a billion boxes

there was only one key

you might think i'm your enemy

but that don't make you mine

and all i have now is empathy

i wish that you'd stop trying

oh

please stop lying

stop la la la la la la la

la la la la la. i put hatred in a box then i locked it

the strongest one i made

i buried it all

grew a tree without thorns

and sat beneath the shade

you might think i'm your enemy

but that don't make you mine

and all i have now is empathy

i wish that you'd stop trying

oh please stop lying

please stop la la la la la la

la la la la la. la la la la la.
