With parallel experiences, our lives are intertwined
though you tend to get lost in spice and smoke, preferring to walk blind
Your strong desire to please, a dangerous mission leads you astray
These roads you follow, silent footsteps on a fool’s array
Wander as you must, choices and consequences become solidly combined
Your blood running in mine, spirits before us whisper and remind
our background, this history we share, make us forever aligned
You may go, forgetting as you disappear into the fray,
our lives are intertwined
Awestruck by this sorrow I feel, to grief I am resigned
With nerves bent and frayed, I accept this sentence you’ve assigned
and when hope withers, almost left to decay
I’ll look for you on my darkest day
A candle in the window, a call to remind
our lives forever intertwined
