You be Nikki and I’ll be Carrie
And we will smile when we see each other
We will only say good things
to other people about each other

But I say bad things and I say mean things
‘cause that is how I feel
You look angry you seem unhappy
Is that how you feel?

You be Carrie and I’ll be Nikki
And we’ll give each other the space we need
As if we are living in two houses
With sunny gardens on a tree-lined street but

We are living in a small apartment
In a crowded city on a tiny island
You feel stifled in this concrete jungle
And I feel stifled where I used to feel free

Bridge: They say the truth will set you free, yeah
But only after it makes you bleed
Oh, Truth, set me free, yeah
‘cause I’m not afraid,
I’m not afraid to bleed

So I sang this song and you sang your song
And we have found that we understand
We need something a new beginning
A new ending

They say the truth
Will set you free
