Two Hearts Beat 


Two hearts beat the same pattern, but they don't unite

One half is black and one half is white One half bleeds while the other vain runs dry

A moment is born and a child does cry


Two hearts beat the same pattern, but they don't unite

One side is wicked and wrong while the other is right

One half is ugly and sharp and will cut you quick

One person catches a cold and the whole nation gets sick


Two hearts beat the same pattern, but they don't unite

One half is lifeless and gray and the other is full of light

One side is broken, but the other half is strong

Just to become outcasted all along


Two hearts beat the same pattern, but they don't unite

One side is kind while the other holds spite

But despite their differences they choose not to fight

For once they become one they fit together just right
