If we are not us
And  I am not me
Then what is it that either could be?
Having submerged myself into the deep
Leaving not a morsel for myself to keep
one plus one would never equal three
So I became one half of two
Forgetting my singularity
merged to a tether that never belonged to me
and without even a letter
had left and forgotten me
Leaving neither us to be us
Nor me to be me
Leaving both I and we without an identity

Then you gazes into my eyes for a little while just to look away
Not that you care
No
Never in a million years
You were only curious to know what's there?
What's written in my face?
Would I care?

You keep talking about her
As if I'm not even there
But I can clearly hear you, I swear
I stop everything and try to catch some air
Hoping I could go elsewhere

Then I get a thousand feelings all at once
But never quite sure how to feel
Unclear about the rules and the steps still
You tease me to reveal what is real

So here we are
As much as we'd like to go far
Away from our wicked game of hearts
It is us we gravitate towards

But there's no us
There can't never be us
We're just too many worlds apart

The question remains in the rain
Your mind still wondering all the same
What do I want?
What am I looking for?
Oh darling trust me
I would be happy to know the answer too

As Tinker Bell and Peter Pan showed it takes a happy hearts
Happy thoughts
To fly and zoom around
Thats why way down here in this bottomless pit is where I'll be found
It's always dark and sometimes scary
A anguished frozen heart is hard to carry
But that's ok, for the birds of prey
Would tear me apart anyway
