"Enemy" lyrics

I feel it slowly taking part of me
A part of me
I fear the reins, I've lost control
I've lost control
I try to tell myself I don't believe
I don't believe
You laughed and asked me for my soul

Guess I thought you should know
You should know
That the climb feels worse than the fall
The fall
That I cut my own brakes when I stall
Surrender to me
I'll build you up then break you down
I set fire to the exit
Exit
Build a folly to a faithless architect
Embrace the entropy
I push you in to tear you out

Floating in my thoughts again
Again
Dreaming myself awake
It's like I'm falling for the highs that I crave
I crave
But outside, it's all decay, yeah

E-E-E-Every night, I escape to where I'm meant to be
Laid alone, yet I'm sleeping with the enemy
It's nothing new to me
It pulls me in to see me drown

Floating in my thoughts again
Again
Dreaming myself awake
It's like I'm falling for the highs that I crave
I crave
But outside, it's all decay, yeah

Turn the lights out, short the circuitry
I'm the god-king of this purgatory
I'm the ghost in your machinery
"What do you want?"
I want you 'cause you're already me
Killing the phantom that keeps you alive

Alive
Alive
Alive
