Nemeses

It's an amazing smile

Even the suit has teeth

Everything flash and guile

And nothing underneath

Except a small black heart that no one sees but me

I've been watching, I can see you start to wonder

Could it be that you need me

To keep you out, to run you faster

Promise me you'll let me be

The one, the worst of all your enemies

Pretending you're a friend to me

Say that we'll be nemeses

Being a brilliant man

Going to great expense

Devising a master plan

Doesn't make much sense

Unless you find the one you're destined to destroy

Now that you're here I don't seem that crazy do I?

Could it be that you need me

To keep you out, to run you faster

Promise me you'll let me be

The one, the worst of all your enemies

Pretending you're a friend to me

Say that we'll be nemeses

Ah yes, my old friend

You are a master of this game

The hidden blade when you pretend

That you don't even know my name

Well played

Sometimes it's hard to tell

If you even notice me

Maybe it's just as well

It's better you don't see

The way I'm running just to keep your back in view

In your shadow waiting for the perfect moment

Could it be that you need me

To keep you out, to run you faster

Promise me you'll let me be

The one, the worst of all your enemies

Pretending you're a friend to me

Say that we'll be nemeses
