RISE AGAINST - Paper Wings lyrics

rate me

One last thing I beg you please, just before you go

I've watched you fly on paper wings half way round the world

until they burned up in the atmosphere and sent you spiraling down

Landing somewhere far from here with no one else around

To catch you falling down

And I'm looking at you now

I can't tell if you're laughing

Between each smile there's a tear in your eye

There's a train leaving town in an hour

It's not waiting for you and neither am I

Swing for the fences son, he must have told you once

That was a conversation you took nothing from so

Raise your glass now and celebrate exactly what you've done

Just put off another day of knowing where you're from

You can catch up with yourself

if you run

I can't tell if you're laughing

Between each smile there's a tear in your eye

There's a train leaving town in an hour

Its not waiting for you and neither am I

Is this the life that you lead?

Or the life that's lead for you?

Will you take the road thats been laid out before you

Will we cross paths somewhere else tonight?

Somewhere else tonight...

I cant tell if you're laughing

Between each smile there's a tear in your eye

There's a train leaving town in an hour

It's not waiting for you and neither am I

I cant tell if you're laughing

Between each smile theres a tear in your eye

Theres a train leaving town in an hour

Its not waiting for you and neither am I
