​paper wings

[Chorus]
Don’t come back, you’ve had your fun
Show your face, we’ll have you on the run
Take your paper wings and take off to the sky
Take your paper wings and take off to the sky

[Verse 1]
You’re the moon that leads the night
Reflecting a light that isn’t yours
But you’re selling dreams, you’re selling dreams
We wonder what’s on the other side
Just bloody waters and melted ice

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the consequences of a love
That you can’t afford
Now our many bodies pay the cost
Mmm

[Chorus]
Don’t come back, you’ve had your fun
Show your face, we’ll have you on the run
Take your paper wings and take off to the sky
Take your paper wings and take off to the sky

[Verse 2]
The beast will bring the forest down
Has already taken in our fathers
It proves insatiable
And it will devour every nation
False hopes, and no reparations

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the consequences of a love
That you can’t afford
Now our barren spirits pay the cost
Mmm somebody’s gotta pay the cost

[Chorus]
Don’t come back, you’ve had your fun
Show your face, we’ll have you on the run
Take your paper wings and take off to the sky
Take your paper wings and take off to the sky

[Bridge]
I can feel your paper wings
Weighing down on me
I can feel your paper wings
And all your silly things
I can feel your paper wings
Weighing down on me
Take your paper
Take your paper

[Outro]
Oh please tell me why you love
Your things more than your people
Oh please tell me why you love
Your power more than your people
Oh please tell me why you love
Your pride more than your people
Your pound more than your people
Oh please tell me why you love
Your things more than your people
Don’t come back, you’ve had your fun
