Paper Charms |
How many times, swan |
We got cold |
You uncorked your wine |
How far we drove drunk |
On a car of paper charms |
Light drawing sun cartoons |
Sunday fairs and red ballons |
How far we seemed to fly |
Calling life a sugar spoon |
Pain was a bird to fight |
Sending feathered sticky kites |
Through the night |
Spring saw us leaving |
Thinking to slide down a moony river |
But reaching just a cardboard sea |
The promised wonderland |
Cross the drums |
Battle sounds |
Soon we lost |
Our paper wings |
Knew the thirst |
Knew the pain |
Learned to walk |
To the man |
Trying to stand |
We composed |
Our best songs |
Iron shoes |
Tramped on us |
Mad fanfare |
Of dirty tunes |
Then we knew |
Taste of dust |
Learned to fight |
To the man |
Shaking fists |
We composed |
Our last songs |
New every morning |
Our poems will turn with care |
Just like the sunflowers |
Cause we know the taste of time |
How, how far we drove swan |
From our fading paper town |
Far from your sticky moons |
Shiny kites and red balloons |
Your nowhere wonderland |
