She's walking up to him so slowly

It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
Suggesting the need for change or escape, but a pause is required.
This one is different 'cause she's lonely

Fold your wings, you'll need them more one day
Advising to be prepared for future challenges by keeping one's guard.
One more smile, one more bed

Her eyes are dark now and they hurt like hell
Depicting dark eyes and pain, possibly signifying emotional distress.
She's so still, she's dead
Stating stillness and death as an outcome, acknowledging an end.
She knows it's over, she holds her head and says
Recognizing the inevitability of a situation and the emotional response.
They can't love me,
Reiterating a feeling of being unappreciated or unloved.
They can't love what I don't show
Highlighting the challenge of loving what is kept hidden.
He's walking up to her so slowly

There have been too many times
Acknowledging past instances of overwhelming someone with perfect words.
When I've drowned you with these perfect lines
Recognizing a repetitive pattern of communication and its impact.
And you've heard me say that I can cure you

This morning I woke up with this overwhelming fear of love
Sharing a personal fear of love and its overwhelming nature.
And I'm not sure if I can resurrect you

Now I'm walking up to you so slowly
Continuing the theme of a slow approach, now from the speaker's perspective.
