Enemy

by Katagory V

on Hymns Of Dissension (2007)

Chasing down this salary
With nothing left to feed your soul
Why can't life be like a carefree ten year old
Was it so innocent, so simple
There was dirt on my hands and blood on your knees
In the mirror, the reflection of that boy inside of me

There's a time, they'll run away
And tell us when they've been
How hard can they be to find
Better days have never left your sight

All their lives will cascade
From the beginning to the end
Now it's just a story of the solitary man
Gaze in the mirror and what is your resolve
One man, could anyone really ever know

Is this our sweet serenity or insanity?
And can you tell me why I am the enemy
What thoughts prevail in your head at night
That in a cold, cruel world for all that's gone wrong

All their lives will cascade
For the beginning to the end
Now it's just a story of the solitary man
Gaze in the mirror and what is your resolve
One man, could anyone really ever know

You never saw me coming; I will never see you go
The past is gone, are my words such a waste
A year is spent, but never ends

All their lives will cascade
From the beginning to the end
All their lives will cascade
For the solitary man
