A Room for Two

There’s a place I often go to stay
Pulled there, unrelenting,
After days full of blues and gray

I know it well, its walls, It’s floor
The shadows in the corner,
The slow creak as I open the door.

And inside waits a figure, he’s always there.
He won’t leave me alone
Sitting, waiting, the black dog in his chair.

And here we stay
In a room for two
At times I love him,
But more, I hate him through and through.
Stuck right here,
In this room for two.

He knows me well, my hopes, my dreams.
It’s like he’s part of me,
The two of us joined at the seams.

And we sit in the room across from each other
He’s my dark storm cloud
My enemy, my devil, my brother.

He’s a permanent resident, always there
I know what I should do,
And stay the hell away from here.

But here we stay
In a room for two
At times I love him,
But more, I hate him through and through.
Stuck right here,
In this room for two.

I’ve tried letting others in to this room for two
To help rid me of myself
But it’s torn my very heart
Left me hollow
I’ve got that sense that this will always be solo.

And here we stay
In a room for two
At times I love him,
But more, I hate him through and through.
Stuck right here,
In this room for two.

This is always going to be
A room for two
At times I love him,
But more, I hate him through and through.
Stuck right here,
In this room for two.

Gotta leave this room for two
But I can’t stop loving him,
Even though I hate him through and through.
Stuck right here,
In this room for two.

Stuck right here
In this room for two.
