I don´t want you to know too much about me, oh no.
´Cause I know you´ll take advantage of the words that I say.
You´re looking for a way to depress me, make me pay.

You don´t want me to be,
too close around you ´cause I would see.
All the weak sides that you got, bout which you´re trying to hide.
You know that I would nail you if I could nurse my pride.

You´re on the top when I´m low.
As soon as you´re fading I will grow.
I don´t like you. You don´t like me.
We´re lacking energy. Yeah, we´re lacking energy.

It´s a mindgame we play.
Rule the roost, major cliche.
While one of us is fit the other´s going insane.
And every time we think the positions will remain.

You´re on the top when I´m low.
As soon as you´re fading I will grow.
I don´t like you. You don´t like me.
We´re lacking energy. Yeah, we´re lacking energy.
So you got me up against the wall
and I´m only waiting for your fall.
I´ll get back on top and be carefree.
It´s not the end for me, no It´s not the end for me.

I know we´re thinking the same
and our opponent´s the one to blame.
Thinking this way is not something we both longed for.
Living this way is never something we did plan.
But I don´t think we will change.
´cause we´re stuck in roles as other´s antipoles.
