Between Lyrics by Vienna Teng

Between Lyrics

    we are not together here
    though we lie entwined
    to make room for the other presence
    we both draw back in our minds
    I have a prophecy
    threatening to spill into words
    this growing certainty
    of over

    there once was a time I was sure of the bond
    when my hands and my tongue and my thoughts were enough
    we are the same but our lives move along
    and the third one between replaces what once was love

    freedom is being alone
    I fear liberation
    but something more alive than silence
    swallows conversation
    no pleasing drama
    in subtle averted eyes
    the swelling fermata
    as the chord dies

    there's no denying we feel the third one
    we do
    I'm tired of hiding and so are you
