Paper Wings

Cotton hiding nails
Serves to break my fall
cnd when I do
They push right through and hurt me

Thought dreams were my freedom
But mine were paper wings
cnd when I launched
They burned and left me falling

Is it over now
I'm scared to dream any more
Dreams raise hope
Hope makes it further to fall
Is it over now
Let me go don't make me crawl
Or will it fight me
cnd hurt me some more

Paper wings and other things discarding
It's all for you
What ground have I to stand and argue
Sun will rise and for you sun stops moving
Seas part for you
cnd so I do

Could I say I'm sorry
It seems I've missed my place
Without you I'm dying
cnd if you still want me
What's left is yours to take
You are my healing
You are my healing

It's over now
I won't dream my own anymore
You are my hope
So let me dream hope that's yours
It's over now
I'm trading paper wings
For you
For you
