* 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's then I realise 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.
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 need another's,
'Cause we're the special two.

* 4-bar break

* Verse 2 I remember someone old once said to me:
"Lies will lock you up with truth the only key.",
But I was comfortable and warm inside my shell
And couldn't see this place would 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 will be again.

* Repeat chorus, except change last line to:
We're the special two.

* Bridge I step outside my mind's eye 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 2 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.
