This is for every single night That the world just seems so black & white And I'm not there to quiet The voices rushing through your tired mind
When the box you live in Begins to box you in And the person in the mirror Is a stranger to the one under your skin
Please know wherever I may be It'll always be you & me -- Lonely freaks on distant streets Remembering the days we used to be free
Free from the impending death Of our ever deteriorating heads -- Up all night in our oversized beds Dreaming of things that hadn't happened yet
Fighting over nothing at all But always there when the other would fall Busting down each other's walls To show our fears were oh-so-small
And I know I've gone away Left you high and dry But promise me you won't forget That we are under the same sky Looking at the same stars every single night -- The world's not so black & white -- Please just hold onto your life Until I'm there again to turn your darkness into light, *And know I love you, sister of mine
If you ever see this, I love you. I can only hope you'll be stronger than I am.
