"if only i had an enemy bigger than my apathy i could have won"

this is great.

"if only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy i could have won".....possibly one of the most powerful truths ever written!

My initial feelings are that he hasn't 'fought' hard enough for what he loves or believes in. But I don't think this is a song of military war, "we carry no arms", I think its an emotional war.

One of my favorite lyrical lines ever! People want to do grand heroic things, but we all tend to neglect the duties and possibilities right in front of us.
