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,
 It was then I realisead  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'll make boundaries  you never  dream to cross,
 and if you happen  to you wake  completely lost.
 But I will fight  for you,
 be sure  that i  will fight  until we're the special  two once again.
 And we  will only need  eachother 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  eachother, we'll breathe  together, these  arms will
 not be taught  to need another's,
 'Cause we're the special  two.
 I remember  someone old  once said to me,
 that 'lies will lock  you up with truth  the only  key'.
 But I was comfortable  and warm  inside my shell,
  mBm
 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,
 Oh, but if by chance  you change your mind  you know i  will not let  you down
 'Cause we were the special  two,  and will be again.
 And we  will only need  eachother 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  eachother, we'll breathe  together, these  arms will
 not be taught  to need another's,
 'Cause we're the special  two.
 I step outside  my minds eye's  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,
Bring  on by yourself,
 Just remembering, just remembering  how we were
 But I will fight  for you,
 be sure  that i  will fight  until we're the special  two once again.
 And we  will only need  eachother 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  eachother, we'll breathe  together, these  arms will
 not be taught  to need another's,
 'Cause we're the special  two.
