"The Enemy" lyrics - DARK TRANQUILLITY
DARK TRANQUILLITY
"The Enemy"
To remain objective, to a closer call
Secretly rejected, and to mediocrity fall
Caught on the downslopes of life
The patted shoulder remembers
The elbowed side resists
Encircled ad nauseum
An enemy to define ourselves
An enemy to refine our hate
Encouraging on the negative scale
Bent out of shape is the measuring norm
In words and in writing
No one knows my enemy... like I do
A social repellant, (not) merely an adversary
Lost to the falling words, Kept the last of all
Understood glances to work against
The patted shoulder remembers
The elbowed side resists
Encircled ad nauseum
An enemy to define ourselves
An enemy to refine our hate
