Kingdoms fall when you and I come close
Battle's over, no one's lost or won
In all our glory, I kept you in my heart
Now I'm staring down the barrel of your gun

I hold a crutch in my hand as I try to stand
I breathe the dust and the dirt in my lungs as the night turns black 

If lovers eternally loved one another
Then we might all smile for longer
If we tried to forgive
Say, live and let live
Would it all come back in pieces?

Convince myself that I was just a fool
For to analyse our faults would be too cruel
Day by day we let the memory fade
Now even words of kindness form another blade

I hold a crutch in my hand as I try to stand
I breathe the dust and the dirt in my lungs as the night turns black 

If lovers eternally loved one another
Then we might all smile for longer
If we tried to forgive
Say, live and let live
Would it all come back in pieces?

So go,
And fall in love again
I'll try,
to fly with my one wing 
Go,
And fall in love again
I'll try,
to fly with my one wing

I guess parting is not the worst thing after all
You'll live and learn to live without my claw
Wings and limbs may break, but I'm not sore
For I know someday you and I will meet once more 

Wings and Limbs
