You can break me down You can bury me alive I will always stand for this And what good are my hands If they don't fight back? I refuse to let this die
This is my everlasting purpose I will be the end of your lies You call me out Expecting me to stand still You hold me down Thinking I'll give in to you
You may live your life in the shadow of doubt But that's not where I will lay my head to rest
They say their words But nothing breaks the surface Yet to say you believe We lay our head down For something empty We must be the enemy
My words may cut like daggers But I wasn't put here to keep my thoughts inside
I am the enemy
I won't hide behind the mask That you've made for me I won't be shut down By the sounds of desperate pleas I won't be brought to my knees By the ones who say I'm worthless I will never back down I am the enemy
They say their words But nothing breaks the surface Yet to say you believe We lay our head down For something empty We must be the enemy
