Adhoc Music - Paper Sky

Paper Sky Lyric: [Verse 1] The sun used to draw on my windowpane, Now it hides behind the smoke and rain. Mama said clouds were dreams that fly, But dreams fell down when the planes passed by. The street is quiet, holding its breath, All the colors washed away by death. My toy boat sails in a puddle red— Where did the ocean go instead? [Chorus] They said it’s for peace, but I can’t find the dove, Only feathers burned from the sky above. I hold my heart in a paper sky, Folded hope, but it won’t fly. If I close my eyes, I still can hear, The lullaby of a world disappeared. [Verse 2] My home’s a whisper under dust and stone, Echoes tell me I’m not alone. I count the stars that never come, Each one’s a wish that turned to numb. My shadow’s small, but it’s growing fast, Like weeds that bloom where the bombs have passed. They said the heroes would light the way, But all I see is night that stays. [Chorus] They said it’s for peace, but I can’t find the dove, Only feathers burned from the sky above. I hold my heart in a paper sky, Folded hope, but it won’t fly. If I close my eyes, I still can hear, The lullaby of a world disappeared. [Bridge] Maybe God’s a child who lost His home, Crying stars into the unknown. Maybe war’s a game gone wrong, Played too long, sung in the wrong song. [Final Chorus] They said it’s for peace, but I can’t find the dove, Only feathers burned from the sky above. I’ll build a world from broken toys, A quiet place for stolen joys. If love’s still real, it’ll learn to fly— Through the eyes of a child, Beneath a paper sky.
