Brawling side by side I think you have seen this ride As the two run and step over each other I feel that they are trying to control their tether Something that used to hold them to the ground When young that point of reference was sound They weren't broken but bound To the uncontrollable present At that time it was a gift, not something to fret But now they wish to give it back Because they lack as their skin starts to crack They use every ointment they can to cover themselves For they can't come to realize that there are no life spells Only broken shells and solitary cells But at the last tumble They feel in their hearts a tremble Holding each other tight they wonder if they were the ones that cast themselves asunder Then without a secondhand thought They let go of their trouble and doubt. This freedom from their obsessive ruts helps them shed their bleeding cuts A call for help so soft and profound When at peace as one Bashful and Jealousy share the rise and fall side by side.

Wishing it to be so
Brawling side by side I think you have seen this ride As the two run and step over each other I feel that they are trying to control their tether Something that used to hold them to the ground When young that point of reference was sound They weren't broken but bound To the uncontrollable present At that time it was a gift, not something to fret But now they wish to give it back Because they lack as their skin starts to crack They use every ointment they can to cover themselves For they can't come to realize that there are no life spells Only broken shells and solitary cells But at the last tumble They feel in their hearts a tremble Holding each other tight they wonder if they were the ones that cast themselves asunder Then without a secondhand thought They let go of their trouble and doubt. This freedom from their obsessive ruts helps them shed their bleeding cuts A call for help so soft and profound When at peace as one Bashful and Jealousy share the rise and fall side by side.
