Songtexte: The Spill Canvas. Don't Let Your Enemies Become Friends.

Blacked out fallen on the floor tonight
That?s what I do to feel the light
You toed the open line that draws me in.
Every time I sink a little lower
in the deep tonight
I don?t remember anything I used to like about you
and why I always let you in.

And as the saying goes,
don?t let your enemies become friends
For the record, I never wanted this
For the record, I wish we never met
and opened up this mess
I couldn?t keep up so we cracked down
And now everything is worse
I should have known
I?m better off on the floor alone
Sometimes closure doesn?t close up
anything at all.

Roughed up rolling in the afterglow,
my dark mistakes they start to show
You operate the spotlight I bathe in
Every time I put a little faith
in my hopelessness
I recall why I?m such a wreck about you
and how you never let me win

And as the saying goes,
don?t let your enemies become friends
For the record, I never wanted this
For the record, I wish we never met
and opened up this mess
I couldn?t keep up so we cracked up
And now everything is worse
I should have known,
I?m better off on the floor alone
Sometimes closure doesn?t close up
anything at all.

All you ever did was use me like a puppet
Stringing me along just to let me lose
Giving me a choice so I had to choose
All I ever did was put it in the open
Giving up a chance to shut you down
You took it as a chance to shut me up

For the record, I never wanted this
For the record, I wish we never met
and opened up this mess
I couldn?t keep up so we cracked up
And now everything is worse
I should have known,
I?m better off on the floor alone
Sometimes closure doesn?t close up
anything at all.
That sometimes closure
doesn?t close up anything at all.
