Twin

I am my own twin, I am my own twin
I am a squirming pitiful vermin
Exterminate me, I am a termite
You tolerate me, you kiss your house goodbye
Send me with poison back to my own kind
Tell me it's medicine, I'll realize in my own time
Give me the right tools to fix my own mind

I am my own twin, I am my own twin
I am a symbiont
He lives inside of me, his personality
It still inflects me, I remember his dreams
We shared a childhood, started on the right foot
But try as we could, we weren't no good
Try as we could, neither of us were any good

I am my own twin, they'd dress us up the same
My mom still gets confused sometimes and calls me his name
He came out first so they love him just a little more
But I know none of us are getting what we long for
No, I know none of us are getting what we bargained for

I used to feel him, but I forgot how
I loved him too, Ma, but I'm all you've got now
