"A Pair of Strangers"
Two pairs of eyes bathed in twilight
Whose sights locked more than twice
See nothing now, except strangers in the night
One blinded by pride, the other by divide
Who are fading fast from their life, as if their invisible fight
To hang on and feel a little bit polite
With each other as the days fly by
Through today or tonight
Might have only existed out of spite
But when your eyes meet mine
Passing in the school hall tomorrow at 12:09
Could you tell me—if that's alright—
Are we still friends?
