Lyrics
When you thought I was winning the game You came and snuffed out the flame You thought you finished me off But you just made me strong Each time you dealt me a blow Each time you brought me so low I found something inside to help me along My enemy, enemy How I need my enemy Oh my enemy, enemy How I need my enemy Did I slight you in some little way Or does hate help you get through the day? One way or another, I'm happy your aim was so true If the demons in you hadn't jarred I would never have struggled so hard The only thing now eating me is, what's eating you? My enemy, enemy How I need my enemy Oh my enemy, enemy How I need my enemy [x2] Now we're just two old men on the brink Each waiting for the other to blink If I should lose you, I'd be left with nothing but fate As I see your life fall apart I should smile but I don't have the heart At the end of the day, it's still too much effort to hate My enemy, enemy How I need my enemy Oh my enemy, enemy How I need my enemy
