Skid Row - My Enemy (Studio Version)

"My Enemy" is a song by Skid Row. It was a single from their fourth album, Subhuman Race. The song was released in 1995 and written by bandmates Rob Affuso, Rachel Bolan and Scotti Hill. A remix of the song was included on the bands compilation album, 40 Seasons: The Best of Skid Row.

Lyrics:

Play the fence, one way you're gonna fall
Sometimes I don't know who you are at all
Your opinion is something that you've got inside
But I see the loyalty has up and died

Your skeletons
My skeletons
Life is only getting shorter

You can be my enemy and I don't care
Keep throwin' stones at yourself

Stories run in circles that have no end
I hit on luck, then you bum me out again
There's a way that you keep the truth in check
Scratch the surface and treat it like a broken neck
Keep the peace when face to face with the scene
Got a hunch that ain't what you really mean
Weather's fair, does that change where you stand?
My back is turned and the knife is in your hand

Your genocide
My genocide
Life is only getting shorter

You can be my enemy and I don't care
Keep throwin' stones at yourself
You can be my enemy and I don't care
You try too hard and I can tell

Please upload the whole album, please....

[EternalLies]

@matrixdoloris Why don't you just buy the album instead? :)

[Retinen1]

Would have been nice if they would have publicized this cd. I didn't even know about it til I came looking for Skid Row songs here on youtube. This is awesome. Is the rest of the cd this good???

[EternalLies]

@Retinen1 Oh yeah. Subhuman Race is a decent album, not as good as their self-titled album and Slave To The Grind though.

Some of the album highlights are: Into Another (Music video is uploaded on youtube). Eileen (I already have it uploaded), Firesign, and Frozen.

Is Sebastian Bach the vocalist on this album. He doesn't sound like he normally does on the other two.

[EternalLies]

@axltyler Yes he is the vocalist on Subhuman Race. :)

@jmitchell67060 that's like telling Steven Tyler "don't scream."

[jmitchell67060]

@axltyler Bob Rock said in an interview after this album's release he didn't want Bas to scream as much as he did on the first two records. He said that people already knew he could scream so he wanted him to try something different.

[JUDITHJ13]

I have all their albums, and got them in my i-Pod. They all sound better mixed, not in order of album release. Rob did awesome on this album!

[Whyrendog]

I played this tape at work until it got warped, had to use the one in the car then played that until it got warped but made a cheap copy onto another tape then that got warped lol. I think I would listen to it more if I didn't already listen to it 500,000 times lol.
