Enem3?

I saw a stranger in the mirror

He gave a cold-cold stare

“Who goes there?”

“Who goes there?”

I feel we’d met before

In a game of tug of war

The victor, I’m not so sure

I’m not so sure

I don’t know where l end

And where he may begin

So meet me in the middle

My old friend

And when it falls apart

We’ll always share the blame

It’s just you and I

Goin’ down in flames

You’d set yourself on fire

For a lonely view

That’s why the enemy

Is you

You’d set yourself on fire

For a lonely view

That’s why the enemy

Is you

The tracks in the the soil of life’s path we walk are our own

The consequences and rewards, effects of a cause

An obviously direct connection to whichever direction we decided on goin’

There’s always a choice, our thoughts are ours alone

To express, and no one else can truly speak with your voice

Each compromise makes the next easier to repeat

It seems small, but one step must be taken for a million to be reached

So gazin’ back upon the mental gallery of life’s valleys and peaks

We see ourselves when we started, and often wonder

Is the person we are now the one that we sought out to become?

If I was introduced to myself back then

Would I qualify as someone I would ever call ‘friend’?

Or has so much been lost of myself?

Have I sabotaged myself at too great a cost to myself?

Feelin’ nothin’ but shame at the way I’ve played the game

So fearful of bein’ defeated

Whenever I could, I cheated

Now all I want is to know if what I suspect is true

The identity of my enemy, the face in the mirror said, “It’s you”

You’d set yourself on fire

For a lonely view

That’s why the enemy

Is you

You’d set yourself on fire

For a lonely view

That’s why the enemy

Is you

You’d set yourself on fire

For a lonely view

That’s why the enemy

Is you

You’d set yourself on fire

For a lonely view

That’s why the enemy

Is you
