He lied to me
He shot at me
He hates on me

He lied to me
He shot at me
He hates on me
He′s using me
Fragility
Electricity
Afraid of me
He's dead to me

He lied to me
He shot at me
He hates on me
He′s using me
He's dead to me
That Spiderman
He is my enemy

Denying.

They lied to me
They shot at me
They hate on me
They're using me
Afraid of me
They're dead to me

They lied to me
They shot at me
They hate on me




They′re dead to me
And now they′re all my enemy

Overall Meaning

The song “My Enemy” by The Magnificent Six satisfies a yearning for the truth and exposes the vulnerable moment when someone realizes that they have an adversary. The lyrics “something’s happening, mind destructing, agony inside of me” showcase how the character feels the intensity of the impending issue rising within them. The frustration and feeling of being lost for words continue to grow, fuelled by the self-destructive tendencies that keep creeping back up. The words “can’t ignore the paranoia” proves the pointlessness in trying to ignore the situation that is wreaking havoc inside the character's head.


The recurring phrases “denying, the rising, the crying, I'm dying” highlight the struggle to hold onto hope while the stress of the situation wages a fierce war within them. Suspicious of everyone in their life, the feeling of being used causes them to cut off all connections, deciding that “they're dead to me.” In the end, “they're all my enemy,” indicating that the character has fully embraced the inevitable battle that will ensue from this situation.
