We were struggling boys & girls
We were pigs just looking for pearls
Now we're blocked by the world
But we're so much richer now in this world with each other
We contest, we complain
But we're made this way for each other
Just a life down a drain
But we made this bed for each other
Just because we are lost
Can't we tell the truth to each other?
Though we know of the cost
Can't we open up to each other?
We contest, we complain
But we're made this way for each other
Just a life down a drain
But we made this bed for each other
Though we know of the cost
We can't open up to each other
So we pretend to be cross
At the greatest cost to each other
We contest, we complain
But we're made this way for each other
Just a smile, all the same
It's the greatest gift for each other
Just because we are lost
Can't we tell the truth to each other?
Though we know of the cost
Can't we open up to each other?
If I opened myself up to you
If you opened yourself up to me
There is still so much more we could be
We could find out
Find out about each other
We were struggling boys & girls
We were pigs just looking for pearls
Now we're blocked by the world
But we're so much richer now in this world with each other.
