Beautiful Enemy 歌词

Beautiful Enemy - Dar Williams

I saw your flag

 

another star

another stripe

What's your new bag

 

Something real or just some hype

Tell me what have you sown

 

Have you prospered and grown

 

Why shouldn't you have

Your moments of genius

 

Just because our alliance broke

With no civil words between us

Oh

my beautiful enemy

beautiful

I send my scorn and ridicule

You're not innocent

No

not innocent

no one's innocent

 

My nation's grand

 

Your name's not on any signs

 

It's so well planned

 

And well groomed and yet sometimes

The past tornadoes through

 

people talk about you

Can't they see that your rein

is steely and torturous

 

I start thinking that I am sinking

Inside a hollow fortress

 

Oh

my enemy

beautiful enemy

 

My stride is slowed by memory

But not innocence

no not innocent

No one's innocent

 

In my furies I've dreamed

That juries denounce you

 

There I stand with the upper hand

But in order to trounce you

I just keep getting above myself

I just keep getting above myself

And so I'm worried but as I've stated

 

Things can be complicated

But you're my enemy

You're my enemy

You're my enemy

 

The future's bright

 

There are new things we will love

It feels so right

 

Let's not make up or rise above

Yes

we are more corrupted

 

but happy and productive

We'll both live in our worlds

of civilized people

 

Though I've heard that

my brand new church

Has a slightly higher steeple

 

Oh my enemy

beautiful enemy

 

Hail to your vast hegemony

 

You're not innocent

I'm not innocent

 

No one's innocent

 

Oh my enemy

beautiful enemy

Hail to your vast hegemony

 

You're not innocent

I'm not innocent

No one's innocent
