We existed in a world

That never was to be

Maybe it had seen the past

Yet future was nowhere to be seen

 

The spill of lust

The outrage of must

The forces of will

And the despair of waiting until

 

Today is not yesterday

Nor shall be tomorrow

Nor shall happiness

Ever be driven by sorrow

 

Today is to survive

Tomorrow is to hope

 

But we shall live together

Though poles apart

And we shall live by our given name

See nothing but each other

Feel nothing but the shame.
