Paper Planes Lyrics

Paper Planes
The youthful lives that we now live down,
The folly in the heavy hearts of kids,
Did raise kings.
And we stood those tides wearing crowns,
Crusading youthful voices in our bid,
At Everything.
And those match tips sparked emblazoned hearts,
Like wings on paper planes.
Hubristic dreams like gasoline,
Put Icarus to shame.
But here we go, to the unknown,
Sometimes dreams hurt more, when you wake.
You never know what you’ll give up,

To taste freedom with every breath,
You can take.
Found fools’ gold and it was enough,
Cause you can’t watch spirits bloom,
Without rain.
And when it ends and your day’s been lived,
Are you happily belligerent,
And bored?
Dear Journeymen, what would you give?
To breathe that naïve innocence,
Once more.
Let match tips spark emblazoned hearts,
Like wings on paper planes.
Hubristic dreams like gasoline,
Led Icarus to fame.
But here we go, to the unknown,
Sometimes dreams hurt more when you wake.
