Paper Airplane
February 22, 2012
I’m grounded,
Frozen where I stand,
Lost as nothing but a hollow of a man.
So lift me up,
Gentle as you can,
Sail me away with the wind.
I’ll get where I want,
I’ll get where I want.
I created myself,
And grounded myself,
And folded myself,
Lived the only way I can.
As a paper airplane.
I’m free for today,
Leaving the ground,
Was my desperate attempt to get away.
I don’t know where I’ll go,
Trapped in a morning breeze,
All you need to know,
Is really, this is me.
