Girls like me don't understand how we wind up Siamese twins   Connected at the neck, when you breathe out, our bodies breathe in   And girls like me don't talk about who's really in control   For when your mouth is open, we can see right down that hole      For all you know of skin and bones, the muscles, brain, and heart   Can you not learn the distance when we stand so close apart?      Girls like me have given up on lending out our eyes   For if and when you bring them back, they've shrunk another size   Your tiny tweezer hands are so precise but cold as steel   And girls like me are sick of being flesh they touch but never feel      For all you know of nervous systems, organs, and insides   Has science taught you nothing of what's underneath the hide?      And girls like me can trace the shadows as they fade away   Running from the sun and dying at the end of day   Girls like me can shed your body, lose this extra weight   We'll cut your throat if that's what it will take for twins to separate
