Frenemies
fren·e·my /ˈfrenəmē/ nounINFORMAL plural noun: frenemies a person with whom one is friendly despite a fundamental dislike or rivalry.
For years I’ve stood lifeless, target in hand
Directing the world where the arrows should land
No defense or fight to stop the attack
Just more guidance to find the soft spot on my back
I guided your blade, surrendered my hand
When I saw an escape, I revealed my plan
The thought that I deserved better, to me, never occurred
When it comes to myself, all my boundaries are blurred
But that never stopped you
You simply refilled your surplus
When I needed your help, you used me - against us
The phrase, friendly fire, now has a new meaning
What kind of friend cuts the throat of their friend, while they’re screaming
