I am your paper plane, Soaring gently through, The thermal winds. Gradually losing momentum, Being crushed by the force, Of your atmosphere. *Our love is crumpled, Even before I hit the pavement.* I am your paper boat, Sailing soothly across, The hidden tides. Slowly beginning to sink, Down deeper into the murky water, Your raindrops creating a swell, A tidal wave of depression. *Our love is unrequited, You'd never cry for me.* I am your paper kite, Your paper bird, Your paper rose. Each object useless and fragile, Easily broken and destroyed. Yes - they may be beautiful, some more than others. But ultimately they can be discarded. Ultimately I am not beautiful. Each object can be remade again, All you need is another piece of paper. And I guess that's all I am to you, A worthless piece of paper.

Waste
I am your paper plane, Soaring gently through, The thermal winds. Gradually losing momentum, Being crushed by the force, Of your atmosphere. *Our love is crumpled, Even before I hit the pavement.* I am your paper boat, Sailing soothly across, The hidden tides. Slowly beginning to sink, Down deeper into the murky water, Your raindrops creating a swell, A tidal wave of depression. *Our love is unrequited, You'd never cry for me.* I am your paper kite, Your paper bird, Your paper rose. Each object useless and fragile, Easily broken and destroyed. Yes - they may be beautiful, some more than others. But ultimately they can be discarded. Ultimately I am not beautiful. Each object can be remade again, All you need is another piece of paper. And I guess that's all I am to you, A worthless piece of paper.
