The Antlers – Two Lyrics 16 years ago
RLH Jones,
It's also not multiple personality disorder, it's Dissociative Identity Disorder. And Bipolar disorder does have two 'polarized' personalities; one manic, and one depressive. Also, schizophrenia is often a predecessor to DID. If you feel you must correct someone, at least know your facts. Wyliekyle made an interesting point. The song is obviously about loving someone with frequent mood-swings, and the very name "Two" I think is in reference to 'BI'polar.

e.g.

It killed me to see you getting always rejected,
but I didn't mind the things you threw, the phones I deflected.
I didn't mind you blaming me for your mistakes,
I just held you in the doorframe through all of the earthquakes.
But you packed up your clothes in that bag every night,
and I would try to grab your ankles (what a pitiful sight.)
But after over a year, I stopped trying to stop you from stomping out that door,
coming back like you always do.
