Friend or Foe
Agnostic Front Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hang out with me then you come and stab my back
Are you friend or foe?
See me on the streets you walk right by me
Are you friend or foe?
Then you tell me on the phone I'm a fucking clone
Are you friend or foe?
When you need help you come back to me
Are you friend or foe?

Friend

Foe
Are you my friend or foe?

Line by Line Meaning

Hang out with me then you come and stab my back
You spend time with me and then betray me

Are you friend or foe?
I cannot figure out if you are on my side or not

See me on the streets you walk right by me
You ignore me when I am in plain sight

Then you tell me on the phone I'm a fucking clone
You insult me and try to undermine my individuality

When you need help you come back to me
You only associate with me when you want something

Friend
You are someone who supports me

Foe
You are someone who undermines me

Are you my friend or foe?
I am questioning your loyalty to me
