You could say that you and I

Don't exactly see eye to eye

On the same wavelength or waterline

You're in the dark

I'm in the light

Don't wanna open your eyes

Don't wanna close mine

To get to this island

On which we both belong

I want to fly

But you want to boat

I can't hear you screaming

And you can't see where I'm going

We clutch the cluttered secrets to our chests

Ashamed and afraid the other wouldn't understand

Just for once couldn't we be friends

Meet in twilight and leave both worlds open

But for now we stand apart

Judging our own selves and thinking we are broken

You could call it

Strained relations
