lyrics

[Verse 1]
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.

[Chorus]
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.

[Verse 2]
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?

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
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.

[Verse 3]
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.

[Chorus]
