lyrics

I'm flying too close to the sun
My wings ain't what they used to be
Dirty, tattered, and falling apart
These ghosts just wreck their havoc on me

Never deserved those eyes of yours
Or the way they focused just on me
Never deserved that smile of yours
The one nobody ever sees, ever sees
But I kept you near anyway
Used every trick just to make you stay

I'm flying too close to the sun
My wings ain't what they used to be
Dirty, tattered, and falling apart
These ghosts just wreck their havoc on me

Who did I think I was kidding
Thinking I was good enough for you?
A long line of friends who never believed me
They knew you were too good to be true
But I held on, hope against hope,
Burnt our skin with this fraying rope

I'm flying too close to the sun
My wings ain't what they used to be
Dirty, tattered, and falling apart
These ghosts just wreck their havoc on me

One of us reached, the other settled,
We know the truth of who is who
You were out of my universe
A beautiful sun darkened by my moon
I'll revolve around you till I explode
It's the only death I wanna know

I'm flying too close to the sun
My wings ain't what they used to be
Dirty, tattered, and falling apart
These ghosts just wreck their havoc on me

about

Rachael Libérer Louisiana

I am but a torch singer in an indie chick's body. One day, I will learn to play guitar better. Until then, I guess everyone is just stuck with my poetic lyrics and full voice
