Two of Me, Two of You
Love's Dichotomy Unveiled: Two Hearts, Two Betrayals
Lyrics
There are two of me
There are two aspects of my identity.
And two of you
Similarly, there are two aspects of your identity.
Two who have betrayed love
Both of us have betrayed the concept of love.
And two who have been true
However, both of us have also been true to love at times.
And together we went crashing through
We, as a collective, have faced and challenged every commitment, promise, and belief in love.
Every bond and vow and faith we knew
We have navigated through the breaking of bonds, vows, and faith we once held dear.
Me and the fool I've been
Referring to the narrator's past self as a fool and acknowledging the involvement of the two individuals.
And the two of you
Reflecting on the narrator's actions and the role played by the two individuals.
Of the two of me
One of my identities always had the understanding.
One always knew
This understanding pertains to the narrator's enduring love for the other person.
That I would always love you
The certainty of the narrator's everlasting love, regardless of the other person's actions.
Whatever you might do
Expressing commitment and love despite the challenges faced by the other person.
And the more unfree and troubled you grew
As the other person faced difficulties, the narrator could sense a division in the world.
I could feel the whole world splitting in two
The narrator felt the world splitting apart while trying to accommodate both identities.
Trying to make the room
Attempting to create space for both identities in the relationship.
For the two of you
Reflecting on the challenge of accommodating both identities in the relationship.
So like a fragile little child
Describing the other person as fragile, lost, and wild.
More than a little lost and wild
Highlighting the vulnerability and confusion of the other person.
How the light would leave the sky when you cried
Depicting the impact of the other person's emotions on the narrator's perception of the world.
And returned again when you smiled
Emphasizing the connection between the other person's emotions and the changing light.
And how the light would invade and divide
Describing the transformative effect of the other person's emotions on the narrator's inner darkness.
The darkness I have inside
Illustrating the internal conflict within the narrator influenced by the other person.
There were two of me
Reiterating the presence of two aspects of the narrator's identity.
And two of you
Similarly, there are two aspects of the other person's identity.
Searching for a passageway
Both identities are in search of a hidden path or solution.
Hidden from our view
Describing the concealed nature of the journey both identities are undertaking.
And together we went crashing through
Recalling the joint effort to confront and challenge various commitments in their shared past.
Every bond and vow and faith we knew
Reflecting on the collective experience of breaking bonds, vows, and faith.
Me and the fool I've been
Referring again to the narrator's past self as a fool and acknowledging the involvement of the two individuals.
And the two of you
Concluding the narrative by mentioning the narrator's past self and the two individuals.
