PAPER AIRPLANES

 

are you afraid of the government? did they create your living hell?

you don't really want honesty...so just buy the lies they sell

are you afraid of a living god...a creator to whom you heel

STAND up and be counted, STEP aside to cry and kneel

 

....feels so real....

 

are you afraid of a racing clock that's catching up with you?

you can try to cheat life but you can't cheat death, nobody is everyones fool

are you afraid of an uprising from the people you left behind?

STAND up and be counted, EVERYBODY cannot be your kind

 

....your dream's over  here and your life's over there....

 

NIGHT AFTER NIGHT, RIDE AFTER RIDE

CONTINUE THE BATTLE 'TWEEN THE HEART AND THE MIND

DAY AFTER DAY, WAVE AFTER WAVE

WHAT ARE WE HOPING FOR?

WE'RE JUST FIGHTING A WAR

with PAPER AIRPLANES

 

what are you wishing for?
