Her Favorite Song Lyrics

Toxic rose in the train station flood lights

Daydream smile working overnights

Step by step across imaginary tight wire

Bloody nose walking on fire

Nothing seems to break her concentration

She's still making progress uptown

When the train whistle from the wrong track blows

And then, and the rose goes down

She can't find the reason why

It doesn't feel wrong

Whispering the words of her favorite song

Pins and needles on the mean streets

Digging in deep into her bare feet

Step by step across the river with a knife

Cutting into plastic searching for a life

Nothing seems to open up her frozen mind

She's still thawing out in the moonlight

The island life under concrete trees

It's gonna, it's gonna make her late for her flight

She can't find the reason why

It doesn't feel wrong

Whispering the words of her favorite song

It stops her heart and then she feels right

She cracks a lonely smile and her chest gets tight

She can't find the reason why

It doesn't feel wrong

Whispering the words of her favorite song

She can't find the reason why

Life is so long

That's why she can't let go of her favorite song
