Where once we were like Siamese twins
And I really did love you
Where once our bodies dissolved
Into one another
On a saltbed crystallized
Now I find the first cracks
Where apathy swathes the light away we knew
Where once we were rock pools of adventure
Skinny dipping into each other
Now I find a beehive of discontent
Humming, humming, humming in secret
Secret inside a lion lies in my path to you
Roaring things could be better
Where once we laughed and sang
Like nightingales now I just laze alone
Remembering I really did love you
Where once we were like ivy
So well attached now an axe has fallen
And in its brambles like a starling, I look for you
Where once we were like Siamese twins
And I really did love you
Where once our bodies dissolved
Into one another
On a saltbed crystallized
Now I find the first cracks
Where apathy swathes the light away we knew
I curse I pray Lord, reverse the stars
Heal all our scars
Cause I really do love you
And I want to go skinny dipping with you today
Today…
Today… again!
