lyrics

I faked my own death
Falsified suicide
I was just doing what you did
Mirror image of our regrets

You were the fool
Take you back to school
Back to where you belong
I was as good as gone
Singing this song
From the great beyond

I need you
I need you here
I need you here with me
Don't think I'm being friendly

I need you
I need you here
I need you here with me
Don't think I'm being friendly
Because that's where I keep my enemies

Yah I'm not really sad
In fact I'm laughing my ass
off
Yah it was a joke
It was a hoax
A Trojan horse

You were looking like a fish when you finally bit
And I reeled you in
I was looking like a pimp
Slapping my bitch
Turning my tricks

I need you
I need you here
I need you here with me
Don't think I'm being friendly

I need you
I need you here
I need you here with me
Don't think I'm being friendly
Because that's where I keep my enemies

Don't care
Never did
You can give it up because I don't give a shit
But for a minute
You were caught up in it
Thought you saw a phoenix
Pulled an Andy Kaufman

I need you
I need you here
I need you here with me
Don't think I'm being friendly

I need you
I need you here
I need you here with me
Don't think I'm being friendly
Because that's where I keep my enemies
