'Always Leaving'

The best that I could give to you,
was the worst that you've ever been through...
Ever been through.

& the down side to living this long...
is that I'm twice the man but half as strong.
So i'll watch you take me for granted...
and I'll just act like I can stand it.
I can count it on one hand,
the times I've felt love with the light on...

& the best that I could give to you,
was the worst that you've ever been through...
One day you'll forget all about me,
& I'll be a foot-note in your autobiography.

Tell me more white lies, cos baby I feel blue.
You can tell me anything you want...except the truth.
I was the man who wished for more wishes.
Dealt bad hands but we're all good kids.
& I can count it on one hand,
the times I've felt love with the light on...

I finally figured out the things inside my head.
The penny dropped when you left me for dead.

I like it some great lines in there... especially being twice the and and half as strong and being the footnote in the autobiography, very clever indeed. The chorus is simple and effective, it doesn't need to be fancy or long as it works perfectly the way it is

I really like it, personally not my type of music but it's really thought provoking (which is what I like in some songs) and the lyrical style is very literal, which I like.
