Adestria - Familiar Enemy lyrics


ad
I used to think I was unique
That I would never be swayed
I was convinced that I could never be changed
I was naive, thinking I'd be any different than those
Those who I had no respect for

I refused to see, held on to my beliefs
That I was somehow better than them
I'm not better than them

And I can't help but think that I've sacrificed the qualities
That keep me distinct from everyone else
Am I so arrogant that I believe
I'm not another version of what I have come to despise?

Once my breath had left the mirror
I could see myself much clearer
I couldn't hide (couldn't hide)
From who I had become
Just as guilty as everyone

My reflection doesn't look
Doesn't look the same
I'm staring at (staring at)
An unfamiliar face

And I can't help but think that I've sacrificed the qualities
That keep me distinct from everyone else
Am I so arrogant that I believe
I'm not another version of what I have come to despise?

The image I expected to see
Was no longer staring back at me
[2x]

Enemy
Staring back at me
[2x]

And I can't help but think
Have I sacrificed everything?

And I can't help but think that I've sacrificed the qualities
That keep me distinct from everyone else
Am I so arrogant that I believe
I'm not another version of what I have come to despise?

I'm just another version of what I have come to despise
My reflection doesn't look
Doesn't look the same
