[Verse 1]
Labelled a creation of evil
Ridiculed for their shocking appearance
[Refrain]
Sharing both pleasure and pain
Two minds, two hearts, one soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Separating mentally
An illusion of privacy
[Chorus]
Together - they absorb each other's lives
As one - they will live and they will die
A living hell has begun
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Displayed as a nightmare
Criticized through words and eyes
As they stare
[Verse 2]
To the normal it seems grotesque
Connected by a, a bond of flesh
[Refrain]
Sharing both pleasure and pain
Two minds, two hearts, one soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Separating mentally
An illusion of privacy
[Chorus]
Together - they absorb each other's lives
As one - they will live and they will die
A living hell has begun
