Treat me like a criminal Just a shadow on the wall Shadow on the wall Like a shadow on the wall Treat me like a prisoner Treat me like a fool Treat me like a loser Use me as a tool Face me 'til I'm hungry

Everything so clear now It's written on your face In a world within a world I can smell the bridges burn Sharks ever circling They never go away In these dark, murky waters So hard to navigate and so easy to hate Paint me black, demonize me, this is how

Face the enemy Stare inside you Control your thoughts Destroy, destroy 'em all You censor what we breathe Prejudice with no belief Senseless violence all around Who is it that keeps us down, down? Once all free tribes

I am the enemy They say their words But nothing breaks the surface (Yet you say you believe) We lay our heads down For something empty (We must be the enemy) You can break me down You can bury me alive

I am realizing That everybody's lost their simple ways And now that it's here, I see it oh-so clearly I've come face to face with the enemy Oh, the enemy Oh, Mr. Back-Stabbin'-Son-of-a-Bitch You're livin' in a world that'll soon be dyin'
