When we collide
The oceans part
The mountains quake
Lightening strikes the grounds
On which we stand firmly apart.

Knowing our place
You and I can not provoke
The belly of the demons
That our eyes full of flames
Can evoke.

Step by step
We carefully place
The war of our fate
Hinting at each other
A steady hand
A smirt in our smile
On which one of us
Will take the first step.

Stripped of pain
No fear lies here
Only the rage
That we have overcomed
Over the years.

A silly dance we both play
Daggers flying in both our ways
Words cut deeply
But there just words at the end of the day.
