“Enemies” denotes the feeling of not obtaining the desired relationship with another. In this new single, Lauv wants to forget about past scars in a previous relationship and stitch them up as best as possible. Even though he is aware that their relationship may never be what it used to be, he wishe...
[Verse 1]
I thought we said we're good
Was I misunderstood?
You lookin' at me so cold
After all that we've been through
How could you pretend?
I'm someone that you don't know
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm so sick of planning all my nights, nights
'round avoiding you, it's gotta end
We don't have to love again or try, try
But can you tell me
[Chorus]
Oh, why do we, we have to be
Enemies, enemies?
Forget all the scars, all that they are
Memories, memories
Oh, I know it hurts 'cause I feel it too
But after all, all that we been through, yeah
Oh, why do we, we have to be
Enemies, enemies?
[Verse 2]
You see me walkin' towards
You're headed for the door
Why is your shoulder so cold?
I know it's hard to speak
With all our history
But that don't mean you should go
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm so sick of planning all my nights, nights
'round avoiding you it's gotta end
We don't have to love again or try, try
But can you tell me
[Chorus]
Oh, why do we, we have to be
Enemies, enemies?
Forget all the scars, all that they are
Memories, memories
Oh, I know it hurts 'cause I feel it too
But after all, all that we been through
Oh, why do we, we have to be
Enemies, enemies?
[Bridge]
Oh, tell me why did, why did we
Throw away the love we had?
And tell me why do, why do we
Love to make it hurt so bad
Yeah, I know that we can't be friends
But after all the things we been
Oh, why do we, we have to be enemies? Oh
[Chorus]
Oh, why do we, we have to be
Enemies, enemies?
Forget all the scars, all that they are
Memories, memories
Oh, I know it hurts 'cause I feel it too
But after all, all that we been through, yeah
Oh, why do we, we have to be
Enemies, enemies?
