If we can't be We,
I can't be Me.
Ain't anything I've got,
I can't keep what we've lost
in this hollow heart of mine.
I feel your breath somewhere,
maybe you breathe my air,
drink my blood just like red wine.
I'm locked inside myself,
can't touch nobody else,
I don't read my own lone mind.
Don't know how to get off,
to hate or even love,
I won't dare to live or die.
Someday I'll have it all,
if my ol' stone cold soul
shall not stay too far behind.
Have you once been You
since we've been through?
I can't be Me.
Ain't anything I've got,
I can't keep what we've lost
in this hollow heart of mine.
I feel your breath somewhere,
maybe you breathe my air,
drink my blood just like red wine.
I'm locked inside myself,
can't touch nobody else,
I don't read my own lone mind.
Don't know how to get off,
to hate or even love,
I won't dare to live or die.
Someday I'll have it all,
if my ol' stone cold soul
shall not stay too far behind.
Have you once been You
since we've been through?
