Together Despite
Tragedy bound, we give it our best.
Hands held together, hearts in our chest.
Eyes on each other, unity stressed.
Lost is the cause, but we’re unimpressed.
Cast is our dice and the number is low.
Ever betrayed by the ones that we know.
Reach with our hands to darkness below.
Warm is our breath as the icy winds blow.
So we commit, for better or worse.
Pledged to each other, blessing or curse.
A broken relation that won’t reimburse.
I’ll sing the chorus, you sing the verse.
Torment is shared when the suffering rears.
Love never claimed to be happiness here.
Only that joy intermingles with tears.
I with my sorrows and you with your fears.
Swim in the sea, the water of strife.
Both of us drifting, edge of a knife.
I’ll be your husband, you’ll be my wife.
Never apart in the ocean of life.
