The Special Two (Live)

[Spoken Intro]

This songs called "The Special Two"

[Verse 1]

I've hardly been outside my room in days

Cause I don't feel that I deserve the sunshine's rays

The darkness helped until the whiskey wore away

And it was then I realised the conscience never fades

When you're young, you have this image of your life

That you'll be scrupulous and one day even make a wife

And you make boundaries you'd never dream to cross

And if you happen to, you wake completely lost

[Pre-Chorus]

But I will fight for you

Be sure that I will fight

Until we're the special two once again

[Chorus]

And we will only need each other, we'll bleed together

Our hands will not be taught to hold another's

Cause we're the special two

And we could only see each other, we'll breathe together

These arms will not be taught to hold another's

We're the special two

[Verse 2]

I remember someone old once said to me

That lies will lock you up with truth the only key

And I was comfortable and warm inside my shell

And couldn't see this place could soon become my hell

So is it better to tell and hurt or lie to save their face?

Well, I guess the answer is don't do it in the first place

I know I'm not deserving of your trust from you right now

But if by chance you change your mind, you know I will not let you down

Cause we were the special two, and we'll be again

[Chorus]

And we will only need each other, we'll bleed together

Our hands will not be taught to hold another's

We're the special two

And we could only see each other, we'll breathe together

These arms will not be taught to need another's

And we're the special two

[Bridge]

I step outside my mind's eyes for a minute

And I look over me like a doctor looking for disease

Or something that could ease the pain

But nothing cures the hurt, you

You bring on by yourself

Just remembering, just remembering how we were

[Chorus]

When we would only need each other, we'd bleed together

Our hands would not be taught to hold another's

We were the special two

And we could only see each other, we'd breathe together

These arms would not be taught to need another's

Cause we're the special two
