Learn To Love - My Enemies & I

Why would you want to escape?

Already made the accommodations for you to stay

The ropes are tight but if you give it a couple of days

You’ll see that it’s better this way

(I'll keep you safe locked away from the bad dreams)

Said that you’d rather be dead

Been more than merciful

I’m keeping you healthy and fed

Keep you alive

I know that it can be hard at the start

Your eyes will adjust to the dark

Steady till death stops the beating of your heart

Cast aside your memories

Cause soon I know you’ll learn to love me

You’re mine, no way you’ll desert me

Cause soon I know you’ll learn to love me

Seems you’ve been trying to leave

Maybe it’s time I take a hammer to both of your knees

Now you can choose a life of pain and sedation

Or be complacent, whatever you please

(I'll keep you safe locked away from the bad dreams)

Look at the mess that you made

I see the color of your skin is beginning to fade

Your lips are cold and turning blue

But I’m happy to say

I’m loving the way that they taste

(Oddly enough, you’re more beautiful this way)

Cast aside your memories

Cause soon I know you’ll learn to love me

You’re mine, no way you’ll desert me

Cause soon I know you’ll learn to love me

Cast aside your memories

Cause soon I know you’ll learn to love me

You’re mine, no way you’ll desert me

Cause soon I know you’ll learn to love me

Why did you want to escape?

Already made the accommodations for you to stay

The ropes were tight but if you gave it a couple of days

You’d see it was better that way

(I kept you safe locked away from the bad dreams)

Said you would rather be dead

Was more than merciful

By keeping you healthy and fed

Kept you alive

I knew that it would be hard at the start

Your eyes would adjust to the dark

(Steady till death, stopped the beating of your heart)
