For My Enemy

[Verse 1] As we all marched ahead In the early hours it began Letter in my pocket still unread The fire lit, the sky went red As we drew near the smell of death Treading through the heavy silence left [Chorus] I told myself I'd never lift a hand in hatred I was wrong Torn up, reborn the way they made me It's not long now [Verse 2] I tried in vain to look away The tragic sight of what remained Wiped off the atlas, our birth place Those of us who still survived Took to the hills before they came Me, my knife and my rifle sat in wait [Chorus] [Bridge] My love letter folded out My last chance I did it now I began to hear her read aloud "Don't you fill your heart with hate No matter what this world will take Our love must not be disgraced." [Chorus] [Outro] It's not long now "Don't you fill your heart with hate No matter what this world will take Our love must not be disgraced."
