Hidden pain part two



Coin flipping strangers, family friends.
All the same, by game of chance.
I throw it in the air, it’s up to you how it lands conditionally.

What ever do we mean?
It starts on impresion, then thrown to you.
Throw it back, see how it lands.
Then we watch as you interact with us.
Starting on the right doesn't mean it will stay unchanged, same for the left side.

One betrayal is all it takes, depending on severity.
Love will be lost.
Make demands when I am at my family's side.
Forget the person you knew.
Make any threat empty or not, it will not be taken lightly.
You will only ever be able to speak to Shadow.

Stand by us despite the system being weakened
We will stand by you, as your second.
Make a deal so we can go morn a life lost.
I will owe you a debt, paid to you in loyalty unwavering.
Stand in our defense.
We will follow suit just the same.

How this game of chance is up to you,
A coin that is seen not touched.
Thrown not truly healed nor caught in hand.
When I say “The system has many enemies, among our friends.”
This coin is what we are referring too.
Flip
Flip
Flip
Heads up, Second chance good luck.
