Arch Enemy

I can hear him breathe
He can read my thoughts
I can feel his teeth
He can steal my words

He knows when I sleep
I know he’s watching me
He knows that I am freak
I know I’m nobody

I have tried
but I can’t hide
I can’t escape
this phantom ache
Fighting back is killing me
I am my arch enemy

I can’t run away
He can’t let me be
I can’t stop his play
He can’t disagree

He caused me all the pain
I caused his existence
He is deep in my brain
I can’t keep distance

I have tried
but I can’t hide
I can’t escape
this phantom ache
Fighting back is killing me
I am my arch enemy

I bleed for his scars
I dying in his wars
I can not be alone
Until I pay my loan
Fighting back is killing me
I am my arch enemy

I can’t take it anymore
I am losing my own war
Only death will set me free
and I’m taking you with me
