Can I rely on the things that mean less to me
Can you deny this hurt you have placed on me
When I try to understand this void that you can't fill
Will you let me take away what I have given you

What is my enemy
So close that I can't see
What is my enemy
You've placed inside of me

What do you hide when you move right back from me
A change of tide when I curse your destiny
If you think I'll understand then stop and think again
Now I've opened up my mind I know that you don't care

What is my enemy
So close that I can't see
What is my enemy
You've placed inside of me

I have learnt again
No trust to depend
No letter will I send
No lies to defend

When you held my hand I forgot the fool I really am
And when you called my name I came running to you without shame
I could never understand just what I can't fulfill
And I broke the barriers that kept me standing still

What is my enemy
So close that I can't see
What is my enemy
You've placed inside of me
