We Are the Same

How does a river need a bed?
Sole dependency
How do you still need her?
Two souls crippling
You are the one that I am as well
As far as I can tell
We are the makers and the breakers
I think that you should know that by now
Draining fiction from our blood.
Pulling music from our notes.
Using all our embellished edges
To make for themselves their own.
I would never take from you
What I’d given back
I would never steal from you
I think you had enough of that
And we
We are the same
When the yelling does subside
I’ll come running to your side
Tell you that I’m not afraid
For us to end up like that
I know when I saw your eyes
I knew it was the worst thing
I would need to find her and tell her
All the hurting she put you through.
And we
We are the same
That was another time
Another place
That’s not your life
You were another time
Another place
Turned into real life
And we
We are the same
