Story behind the song
I like imagery. I thought this one worked well for the "star crossed lovers" idea.
Lyrics
Paper Dragons We’re paper airplanes You and I Carefully crafted Carelessly tossed into the sky And I want the paper to turn real So the wind and the flight is all I feel Instead the wings are torn, and we drift apart as we fly Paper airplanes You and I We’re paper dragons You and I Finessed and folded Forced into a fight And I want the paper to turn real Stop the fighting and once again feel Instead the body’s tattered, and I am hollow inside Paper dragons You and I So much care, in the making So much for granted, in the taking Left to be found, on moving day In the corner of the box while the rest is put away We’re paper dolls You and I Meticulously made Married under crayon blue skies And I want the paper to turn real To know you are there, to know I can feel Instead we are left to wonder why Paper dolls You and I
