between the head and heart, you must reside
and carry on, regardless of the weight -
i hope you never see your worlds collide
if you can fight the emptiness inside
the battle's almost won, so close the gate;
between the head and heart, you must reside
it's tempting, yes, but you will be denied
from understanding, only left to hate
i hope you never see your worlds collide
discard the hunger, balance out the tide
you'll learn that dying lies in taking bait
between the head and heart, you must reside
and in you now, i know i must confide
there's so much strength in keeping in this state
i hope you never see your worlds collide
your twin-set mind, a natural divide
but you were always destined to create
between the head and heart, you must reside;
i hope you never see your worlds collide.
