Completely different

No friend, no enemy,

No beloved, no stranger.

Every word of ours is a knife,

Every silence a gravestone.

Even as we destroy each other, we stand side by side.

To be your enemy has become a kind of loyalty to me.

Sometimes our harmony frightens me,

Even when we fight, we keep the rhythm.

Before you speak, I have already written my reply.

You treat me like an enemy,

Yet I am still, at heart, on your side.

We are utterly different, yet in harmony, yet in war.

Even as we destroy each other, we are made complete.

We are utterly different, both medicine and poison.

Your breath is both life and grave to me at once.

We are utterly different, yet in harmony, yet in war.

Even as we destroy each other, we are made complete.

We are utterly different, both medicine and poison.

Your breath is both life and grave to me at once.

As I vanish in your eyes, I felt your fists within me.

With you, I learned that love and hatred spring from the same root.

You tore me down, I held you up.

We are both wrong, we are both right.

Our story grows on thorns,

And precisely because of that, we belong together.

We are utterly different, yet in harmony, yet in war.

Even as we destroy each other, we are made complete.

We are utterly different, both medicine and poison.

Your breath is both life and grave to me at once.
