Like A Storm's journey began in 2005. After rehearsing once in their native New Zealand, Matt, Chris and Kent decided to move to North America and pursue the rock n' roll dream.
"New Zealand is such an awesome place to grow up," says Chris. "It's a really inspiring place--so beautiful and isolated. But the first time we jammed, we had this amazing chemistry, and we knew we had to take our sound to the world. We left our family and friends and set up in Canada. There are so many different experiences from that time, and the songs on the record are about them."
Upon moving to Canada, it only took one show for Like A Storm to build a buzz. Kai Marcus (Methods of Mayhem/Noise Therapy) saw the band and was instantly blown away. He struck up a friendship with the guys and introduced them to multi-platinum producer/mixer/engineer Mike Plotnikoff (Three Days Grace/My Chemical Romance/ Buckcherry) in early 2006. Plotnikoff and the boys immediately began trading ideas for what would become THE END OF THE BEGINNING.
Enemy
Like A Storm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hate you for what you've become
I hate you, you know what you've done
You can't look me in the eye but I want you to see
I won't be your lifeline when you will be the death of me
You've become the enemy
You've become the enemy
(You stole my soul)
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life, the life you stole
I hate you for what you've become
How you live with the things that you've done
So look me in the eye 'cause I want you to see
I won't be your lifeline when you will be the death of me
You've become the enemy
But you won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
(You stole my soul)
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life, the life you stole
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life, the life you stole
You've become the enemy
But you won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
Give back the life, the life you stole
The lyrics to Like A Storm's song "Enemy" are about someone who has become the enemy of the singer. The singer hates them for what they've become and for the things they've done. The person can't even look the singer in the eye, but they want them to see what they've done. The singer is no longer willing to be their lifeline and instead wants them to realize that they will be the death of the singer.
The lyrics make use of religious imagery when the person is compared to Jesus Christ with devil's horns. This paints a picture of someone who was once pure and good, but has now turned to evil. The person is described as having sucked the singer down into their black hole, and the song asks for them to give back the life they stole. Overall, the song seems to be about a deeply broken relationship and the feelings of betrayal and hatred that come with it.

You've become the enemy
I despise you for what you've become
I hate you for what you've become
I feel nothing but disgust and anger towards you for the way you've changed
I hate you, you know what you've done
I hate you, and you understand clearly the wrongs that you've committed
You can't look me in the eye but I want you to see
You lack the courage to face me head on, but I need you to understand the severity of your actions
I won't be your lifeline when you will be the death of me
I refuse to be your support and shield when you're slowly killing me with your negativity
But you won't be the end of me
Despite everything, I shall not let you break me completely
(You stole my soul)
You have taken away all that makes me, me
It's like you died before you were born
You're nothing but a husk of a person, devoid of all human emotions
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
You present a facade of being a saint, but in reality, you're nothing but evil
Sucking me down in your black hole
You're dragging me with you into your abyss of darkness
Give back the life, the life you stole
I demand that you return all that you've taken from me and leave me in peace

You've become the enemy
I hate you for what you'd be called
I hate you, you know what you don't
You can look me in the eye
But I want you to see
I won't be the lifeline
When you will be the death of me
You've become the enemy
But you won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
Stole my soul
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life the life you stole
I hate you for what you'd become
How you effort the thing that you'd done
So look me in the eye
Cause I want you to see
I won't be the lifeline
When you will be the death of me
You've become the enemy
But you won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
Stole my soul
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life the life you
Stole
It's like you died before you were born
You're like Jesus Christ with devil's horns
Sucking me down in your black hole
Give back the life the life you
Stole
You've become the enemy
But you won't be the end of me
You've become the enemy
Give back the life
The life you
Stole
