My Enemy

Put your ear next to my beating heart

Still alive

And if you pick me up in your arms

I'll give you one more chance

To try and knock me down again



If you want to stand me up on frozen ground

Go on take aim when I open my mouth



I still love my enemy

I still love my enemy



You appointed me the stoic one

Not allowed to cry these tears

But silence belies the pain

You pushed inside



Impossible to love

Is all that I know how to be

But in my heart

I keep repeating

You didn't mean to hate me



I still love my enemy

I still love my enemy ...
