As a commander
He will stride above all
.
Snug and sound in his ship
At his call we destroy
.
And I stand at Death's door
Fighting alone but fighting strong
.
We stand at different levels
And I stand higher than he
.
Through brains he works
Giving orders to us all
.
But I survive through luck and skill
From body and spirit I thrive
.
We stand at different levels
And I stand higher than he
.
We are connected
One and the same
.
He is the mind, the orders
I am the body, the actions
.
But even though we are connected
We are still separate
.
And even though he receives all the credit
I was the one who did all the work
.
We stand at different levels
And I stand higher than he
