"Enemy" lyrics

"Enemy"

Used to think You didn't care
I was just a pawn in the game You were playin'
Puttin' walls up everywhere
Never thought You heard a word I was prayin'

I stood in the way
When I needed to run to You
But I was too proud to say

Take away the blindness
Lead me through the dark, don't let me fall apart
Save me from my bitterness
Show me who I am, make me who You want me to be
I know I pushed You away
Lookin' for someone to blame, yeah
Now I can see, I've been my own worst enemy

Who was I to sit and judge?
Always pointing my crooked finger
Holdin' tight onto a grudge
All along I was a chief of sinners

I stood in the way
When I needed to run to You
Lord, I was too proud to say

Take away the blindness
Lead me through the dark, don't let me fall apart
Save me from my bitterness
Show me who I am, make me who You want me to be
I know I pushed You away
Lookin' for someone to blame, yeah
Now I can see, I've been my own worst enemy

No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me
(No, You made a lamp unto my feet)

No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me

Take away the blindness
Lead me through the dark, don't let me fall apart
Save me from my bitterness
Show me who I am, make me who You want me to be
I know I pushed You away
Lookin' for someone to blame, yeah
Now I can see, I've been my own worst enemy

(Oh, oh)
Now I can see, I've been my own worst enemy
(Oh, oh)
Now I can see, I've been my own worst enemy

No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me

No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me
No, You never gave up on me
