One Wing

We once belonged to a bird
Who cast a shadow on this world
You were a blessing, and I was a curse
I did my best not to make things worse
For you
It isn't true

I always knew this would be our fate
This is what happens when wings separate
This happens to all dead weight eventually

We may as well be made of stone
We can't be flown
One wing will never fly
Neither yours nor mine
I fear
We can only wave goodbye

One wing will never ever fly
Neither yours nor mine
One wing will never ever fly, dear
Neither yours nor mine
I fear
We can only wave goodbye

Bye bye
