Your Enemies

Lyrics
It seemed like a dream at first Or a terrible joke one of The young folks would tell, but it hurt Left you dirty and broken No, the nightmare never left you Despite all of your plans And you could not accept you With that stain on your hands And by your side, your enemies Now you're living in splendor Then you turn out the lights In the deepest depths of yourself From your darkest nights you see A daughter who is slipping into A daughter just like you And you know that familiar script because It happened to you And by her side, your enemies were By her side Wars she's fought, but she didn't start Yours she fought, and she's played your part 'Til in her heart, she got smart Stopped being the star actor on your stage And you are left to face yourself You are left to face your rage Lights on from the corner A dramatic reverse I stand on a mountain top dropping A broken family curse Every shard contains a symphony Played upon each edge I use them to fell the deadest trees, then I Leap over the ledge And by your side, I'll never be By your side, I'll never be By your side Tell me can you accept this When you turn out the lights?
