my brother and I
two of a kind
on opposite spectrums
yet still have a bond
when I was younger
I often made wishes
you were normal and
not the strange one
but in passing years
I gained to accept you
just as you are –
completely special
when we enter twilight
I will hold fond memories
to keep my heart going
when you are gone
two of a kind
on opposite spectrums
yet still have a bond
when I was younger
I often made wishes
you were normal and
not the strange one
but in passing years
I gained to accept you
just as you are –
completely special
when we enter twilight
I will hold fond memories
to keep my heart going
when you are gone
