Title: "Paper Wings"

Verse 1
In the quiet of the morning,
You trace the sky with your eyes,
Dreams folded in your pocket,
But too afraid to fly.

Your voice, a whisper in the thunder,
Your heart, a flame in the snow,
You're stitched from soft and splintered things
The world will never know.

Chorus
But don’t you know you’ve got paper wings,
Drawn in ink that never fades?
Even if the storm begins,
You were born to break the cage.
Every bruise became a feather,
Every scar a silent song—
You're stronger than you ever knew,
You've been flying all along.

Verse 2
You talk like the wind might leave you,
Like love’s just a trick of the light,
But I see the fire behind your fear,
And the way you still choose to fight.

You carry shadows in your suitcase,
But there’s gold beneath the pain,
You keep the sky inside your chest
Like a promise in the rain.

Chorus
Don’t you know you’ve got paper wings,
Drawn in ink that never fades?
Even if the storm begins,
You were born to break the cage.
Every bruise became a feather,
Every scar a silent song—
You're stronger than you ever knew,
You've been flying all along.

Bridge
And maybe they won’t understand
The softness in your soul,
But darling, that’s what makes you soar—
That’s what makes you whole.

Final Chorus
Now you know you’ve got paper wings,
And they carry every dream,
You don’t need the wind to lift you—
You’ve got starlight in your seams.
Every bruise became a feather,
Every tear a thread of dawn—
You’re braver than you’ve ever been,
And you’ve been flying all along.
