A desire so strong
And a mind too weak
Pain has taken control
And now everything seems bleak
Countless times we argue
Like enemies over petty things
But reconcile each time
Like lovers in cold winter winds
It never deserts me
Neither does that thought crosses my mind
Heavily dependent on each other
It's each other we must destroy
When I am happy and when I am sad
Both only a cover for the growing numbness
The chills of its presence
Warms my soul and leaves me in a trance
People plan and plot
How to break our bond
Putting me in a difficult spot
And forcing me to abscond
They do not understand my point
And impose theirs with deep ardor
I say we are like the faces of a coin
Never one without the other.
So, stop trying to separate us
It's next to impossible
Let me live in the chaos of our strange curse
And let me keep fighting till I am capable.
