TWO WORLDS

Words and Music by Peter Merz

Feel the pressure tug away
More than we can do or say
This tightrope's getting harder to walk
And the mirror and the mask
Blur the lines that we should ask
Here we are avoiding outlines in chalk

Maybe it's just a little Jekyll and Hyde
Maybe the rush of a falcon in the dive

CHORUS
You and I walk between two worlds
Quick to pretend and protect
Against fears that would project
You and I walk between two worlds
The sacred and the profane
Were playin' a dangrous game
You and I walk between two worlds
But we can only do for so long
Yeh, we can only do for so long

Just like actors on a stage
We play our part in the play
But anytime the curtain could fall
Embracing shadows and lies
Pris'ners to our double-lives
Blinded to the writing on the wall

Maybe it's Percy and the Pimpernel
Maybe it's dirty tricks straight out of hell

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
We've told ourselves the lie
That we walk in the dark
So we can serve the Light
Turning a blind eye to sin's earmarks

REPEAT CHORUS

TAG/END
Do we have the strength it takes
To choose to live in one world?
Do we have the strength it takes
To choose to live in one world?
And if we do, will it be the right one?
And if we do, will it be the right one?
