You and I stand here
By the lake created by a tear
Together alone we gaze
Staring deep into our black maze
No ends, no light, no dreams
We’ve brushed away the screams
You and I bite and snap
Set free we are from our straps
Together alone ourselves we ask
Why our secret love is in the past
And I bore you and you bore me,
Drowning slowly alone in our sea
If I turn to you and reach out
I know you’ll only return me doubt
You and I we stand here,
Lack of hope, full of fear
Together alone we’ll never kiss
Never laugh or reminisce
We wait, until, one eventually falls
The lake swallows up and enclose the walls.
Until alone one of us stands free,
Free from the love I held for thee
At least now in death so silent
You and I won’t be secretly reliant.
