Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is my least favorite life
The one where you fly and I don't
The kiss holds a million deceits
And a lifetime goes up in smoke
[Verse 2]
This is my least favorite you
Who floats far above earth and stone
The nights that I twist on the rack
Is the time that I feel most at home
We wandering in the shade
And the rustle of falling leaves
A bird on the edge of a blade
Lost now forever
My love, in a sweet memory
[Verse 3]
The station pulls away from the train
The blue pulls away from the sky
The whisper of two broken wings
Maybe they're yours, maybe they're mine
[Verse 4]
This is my least favorite life
The one where I'm out of my mind
The one where you're just out of reach
The one where I stand, and you fly
[Verse 5]
I'm wandering in the shade
And the rustle of falling leaves
A bird on the edge of a blade
Lost now forever
My love, in a sweet memory
