Lyrics

I'd rather an enemy

I prefer having an enemy over a friend who isn't supportive.

Than a friend not on my side

I'd choose having someone opposing me rather than a close friend who deceived me.

An advisory

Prefer someone who provides advice or warnings.

Over someone close who lied

Prefer no one over someone close who lied to me.

I don't know which side of me is talking

Uncertainty about the conflicting aspects of oneself speaking, possibly due to confusion or internal conflict.

Or if it's my pride?

Questioning whether pride influences the thoughts or actions being considered.

I don't want to lose, I don't want to be lost

Desire not to lose and avoid being forgotten or overlooked.

Out of sight, out of mind

When something is not visible or remembered, it's no longer considered.

I thought I knew you

Belief that there was understanding of someone, now realized as an error.

But that was a mistake on my part

Admitting a mistake in assuming the capability to assist someone.

I thought I could help you

Suggesting it's better for the person to be abandoned or left alone in darkness.

You're better off forsaken in the dark

Preference for solitude rather than unwanted visitors at the door.

I'd rather nobody

Prefer no company over those who don't perceive or intentionally ignore a situation.

Than someone knocking at my door (Knock, knock)

Implies ignorance or refusal to acknowledge something evident.

Either you don't see it (See it)

Reference to the conflicts and challenges existing outside.

Or you choose to ignore

Noting the coldness or discomfort present in the atmosphere.

The war out there (The war out there)

The burdens and hardships faced in external battles.

The chill in the air (The chill in the air)

Describing the environment as akin to warfare.

The weight it bears (The weight that it bears)

Realization of misunderstanding someone's true nature.

It's warfare (It's warfare)

Recognizing inability to express thoughts or defend someone adequately.

I thought I knew you

Despite attempts, words seem ineffective or worthless.

But that was a mistake on my part

Encouraging the person to follow instead of resisting or remaining oblivious.

I thought I could help you

Indicating being left or ignored in a situation of obscurity.

You're better off forsaken in the dark

Repetition emphasizing being left in darkness, possibly metaphorical.

You're better off forsaken in the dark

Reinforcing the feeling of abandonment or isolation.

In the dark, in the dark

Reiteration of the feeling of being in a state of darkness.

And I'd mean what I say

Desire to speak truthfully but experiencing difficulty in doing so.

But I can't seem to speak at all

Inability to articulate thoughts or communicate effectively.

No words to utter

No ability to speak or form words in someone's defense.

Not a syllable

Complete lack of verbal expression or communication.

In your defense

Not due to lack of effort, but words seem inadequate.

And it's not the lack of attempts

Feeling that efforts to speak or defend are useless or ineffectual.

My words are few

Intending to convey honesty or sincerity but lacking words.

But now they appear useless

Asking the person to follow the speaker's lead instead of resisting.

And I meant what I said

Reiteration of being left or abandoned in darkness.

Why don't you follow me instead?

Reaffirmation of being in a state of obscurity.

Now that you're

Repeating the sentiment of being in darkness, emphasizing the situation.

In the dark, in the dark

Reiteration of being in a state of obscurity.

In the dark, in the dark

Reiteration of the feeling of being in a state of darkness.
