Partner of mine
Remember the days when we
Were feeling fine
Now we are enemies
Perched at our throats
Waiting for the first move
Sow your mad oats
Going against the groove
False eloquence
It's all useless when we've
Taken a fence
The tangled web we weave
Binds me to death
No use to struggle
I'm saving my breath
Going for double
What is a foe but a poisonous friend
What is our trust but a means to an end
What is a life but a battle for love
What is our tie but the great lackthereof
Rival of theirs
We should have known you were
Putting on airs
Moving your act forward
What's left to gain
There are no notions left
To entertain
Leaving us motionless
Let out a sigh
I'll lay around just
Wallow in my
Antagonistic lust
Favor has fell
Schadenfreude in situ
It feel so swell
Loving to hate you
Two opposing sides
Isn't that how war goes?
How far can we get
Without coming to blows
From the highest highs
To the deepest of lows
There is no return
From the path which you chose
What is a foe but a poisonous friend
What is your trust but a means to an end
What is a trick but a sleight of the hand
What a pathetic excuse for a man
What is a life but a battle for love
What is our tie but the great lackthereof
