Sleeping With the Enemy

Sleeping With the Enemy

A Poem by Matt
"

The line "Sick of it all" sums it up well... pic is from the video for Matthew Good's Born Losers music video.

"
I don't understand you or me
I'm waiting for something to just bring me peace
Look right through me 'cause it's all over
Leave me alone! it's all over

chorus:
You're not my friend get out of my way
Nothing I have left to say
I'm sick of it all so get off my back
I'm sleeping with the enemy

I want to give in to your plea
But I know beneath it there's just apathy
I'm turning my back on all that I've known
Please let me leave! this isn't my home

(chorus)

bridge:
It took this to finally realize
That the fight had hit its mark
You've opened up these old wounds
You're bashing down my doors
It's too late to escape this
It's too late to flee
And now I'm stuck here wondering
Are you as blind as me

This is the end don't you see
A time for war there is no peace
I'm setting a fire to burn this away
I'm giving it up! don't ask me to stay

(chorus)
