Lyrics Familiar Enemy - Adestria

Familiar Enemy

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 from who I had become
Just as guilty as everyone
My reflection doesn’t look, doesn’t look the same
I’m 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
The image I expected to see was no longer staring back at me
Enemy, staring back at me
Enemy, staring back at me
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
