Enemy of my Enemy

© 2003, Lyrics and Music by Jason Didner


A war's broken out in the funhouse
Targets painted in the mirror hall
Explode into shards of confusion
Embedded with trust behind unproven walls

I'm dodging the bullets of jokers
Hunting for aces in the deck of cards
I'm streaming the view from the frontline
Still the frontline may be in our own backyard

I can't turn away from the glaring
In the eyes of such desperate hate
Am I taking control of my future
Or am I just taking the bait?

Enemy of my enemy
I've gone out on a limb to defend
Enemy of my enemy
I may never be sure he's a friend
Enemy of my enemy
On his actions and words I depend
Enemy of my enemy
When he may turn on me in the end

I'm treading through deepening trouble
When the eyes of the world may decide who will win
I'm digging for facts in the rubble
When a thousand truths fit on the head of a pin

I feel like we keep going through this
The more mankind changes, the more we're the same
From our minds can spring life saving powers
Still we want bigger weapons, we crave bigger flames

I can't turn away from the glaring
In the eyes of such desperate hate
Am I taking control of my future
Or am I just taking the bait?

Enemy of my enemy
I've gone out on a limb to defend
Enemy of my enemy
I may never be sure he's a friend
Enemy of my enemy
On his actions and words I depend
Enemy of my enemy
When he may turn on me in the end

Enemy of my enemy
I've gone out on a limb to defend
Enemy of my enemy
I may never be sure he's a friend
Enemy of my enemy
On his actions and words I depend
Enemy of my enemy
When he may turn on me in the end

Enemy
Enemy
Enemy
