lyrics

Keep Your Enemies Close

The moon is out and it brighens up this dark road
But you still can't see where to go
It's like your vision was blurred but visable now
Disapperad such a long time ago

You keep on walking and bad luck follows your way
But one day this has to change
It's like life is based on the toss of a coin
And it lands face down all the time

Need to belong, string you along
Don't feel you belong

Just keep you enemies close
To be freinds was a joke
So still keep your enemies close

Be careful with people that you sometimes meet
They can lie and cheat and disceive
Think the worst and then anything differnt is great
Then you won't get let down that way

You thought you knew them but how could you be so far wrong
You just should have know all along
They pretend to be nice but you know it's a con
You needed a place to belong

Need to belong, string you along
Don't feel you belong

Just keep you enemies close
To be freinds was a joke
So still keep your enemies close

They look at you with such jealousy in their eyes
They got so much to despise
They think there better but little to offer they know
So they keep the prestense for a show

They spread bad rumours and lies that ruin your name
And try to put your face now to shame
But you've seen right through them they have no place to hide
Disapperad into the fading light

Just keep you enemies close
To be freinds was a joke
So still keep your enemies close
