    Jack Johnson, Enemy

    After we spoke I had a dream that I broke
    The teeth from a mouth of a snake
    Then I choked on the teeth they were mine all along
    I picked up the pieces when I woke
    I put them in a boat made of things that I don’t want to see
    I blew on the sail watched it drift out to sea
    The further it drifted the closer it came to me I can’t explain
    So I took it apart built a billion boxes
    But there was only one key

    You might think I’m your enemy
    But that don’t make you mine
    And all I have now is empathy
    I wish that you’d stop trying
    Please stop lying

    I put hatred in a box then I locked it
    The strongest one I made
    I buried it all grew a tree without thorns
    And sat beneath its shade

    You might think I’m your enemy
    But that don’t make you mine
    And all I have now is empathy
    I wish that you’d stop trying
    Please stop lying
