The Special Two - Missy Higgins

I've hardly been outside my room in days
Cuz I don't feel that I deserve the sunshine's rays
The darkness helped until the whiskey wore away
And it was then I realized that 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
And we will only need each other
We'll bleed together
our hands will not be taught
To hold another's
When we're the special two
And we can only see each other
We'll bleed together
These arms will not be taught
To need another
When we're the special two

I remember someone old once said to me
That 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
Than lie to save your 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
Oh, but if by chance you change your mind
You know I will not let you down
Cuz we were the special two
And we'll be again

And we will only need each other
We'll bleed together
Our hands will not be taught
To hold another's
When we're the special two
And we can only see each other
We'll bleed together
These arms will not be taught to need another
When we're the special two

I step outside my minds eyes for a minute
And I look over me
Like a doctor looking for disease
Something that could ease the pain
But nothing cures the hurt you
You bring em by yourself
Just remembering
Just remembering
How we were

When we would only need each other
We'de breathe together
Our hands would not be taught
To hold anothers
We were the special two
And we could only see each other
We'd bleed together
These arms will not be taught
To need another
Cuz we're the special two
