Love is an enemy
Love is the old killer
Love is not blind
Love is a cannibal…with pure sharp sight
Love is like an insect
that keeps being hungry
hungry for friendship
eats friendship and don´t worry…if pain strikes
Bridge:
We thought that nothing could
Tear apart our friendship
Maybe love´s making you blind
Not to see our crumbling ship
Love is a pure feeling
Or just a tool to reign
Love brings pleasure
Love as well can bring pain…with a smiling face
Love can make you happy
If you know how to use
Love´s also a weapon
That can be abused…to destructive aims
Bridge:
We thought that nothing could
Tear apart our friendship
Maybe love´s making you blind
Not to see our crumbling ship
Chorus:
You have been taking my friends one by one
So don´t be surprised
That I´m scared to…get you closer to my mind
Now you´re reaching out for my best friend
That I´ve ever had
So I´m fighting to…hold the same place in his head
Bridge:
We thought that nothing could
Tear apart our friendship
Maybe love´s making you blind
Not to see our crumbling ship
Chorus:
You have been taking my friends one by one
So don´t be surprised
That I´m scared to…get you closer to my mind
Now you´re reaching out for my best friend
That I´ve ever had
So I´m losing to…hold the same place in his head

A little philosophical commentary, first, if I may?
... This is exactly where I am right now 
and actually for most of the past year, and I say this because you expressed several specific thoughts very eloquently and also in great style. I think this is masterfully written and brilliantly poignant!
Also if I may, I would just remove one little article, the "a" in red ...
Love is a pure feeling
Or just a tool to reign
Love brings a pleasure
Love can bring as well pain…with smiling face
To me this is the heart of what you wrote:
Love can make you happy
If you know how to use
Love´s also a weapon
That can be abused…to destroying aims (maybe use destructive instead of destroying?)
You have been taking my friends one by one
Oooh yeah, I certainly know how that is. Superbly written, onward and upward my friend
There is no glamour in sudden death, and nobody ever wins a war.

Hello Hugo,
As usual it is with great pleasure that I read your lyrics. And just as MoonRide so rightly observed they're always so well developed! To which I'd add that they're never "light" or meaningless. You always dig deep! Congrats!
If I may suggest something, I'd re-phrase following verse:
"Love is like an insect
that´s keeping be hungry"
to
"Love is like an insect
that keeps being hungry"
'cos the verb that follows "keep" should be in the gerund form.
In this line:
"Love can bring as well pain…with smiling face"
the order of the words is slightly artificial; what about "Love as well can bring pain…with A smiling face" or "Love can as well bring pain ... with a smiling face".
And, ermm ... your "surpriced" cries for a second "s"

I´m glad that you are connected to these lyrics and you´ve got the same feelings about them like me. -
