The sky is gray the river flows
I fold my dreams into paper boats
Drift them out where nobody goes
The wind whispers secrets I can't hold
Promises made but left untold
Paper boats on a quiet stream
Sailing away with every dream
I call out loud but they don't turn
They float away while my bridges burn
Shadows fall the streetlights hum
Counting cracks till my mind goes numb
Every star feels a little more dumb
The air is heavy the night is cold
I chase the echoes of words grown old
Paper boats on a quiet stream
Sailing away with every dream
I call out loud but they don't turn
They float away while my bridges burn
