Lyrics
Talked myself out of you
Talked myself out of a relationship with you
Let the music drown your voice
Used music to escape and silence your influence
Only listening to the sirens
Focused only on dangerous or enticing things
I set my face and left the shore
Resolved to face challenges and left the safety of familiarity
Running after things that chose
Pursuing elusive goals that have chosen him
They scream a chorus mend my life
Encountering difficulties represented by a screaming chorus
I was shipwrecked I was blinded
Experienced a major setback and was blinded to reality
The mighty voice became so small
A once powerful voice became insignificant
Chasing vapor
Engaged in the futile pursuit of something intangible
Flying too close to the sun
Took risks without considering the consequences
These wings are paper
Metaphorical wings are fragile, representing vulnerability
And nothing is enough
Nothing satisfies or fulfills
Lift my head just for a moment
Briefly lifted his head, escaping a suffocating situation
No longer breathing in this mask
No longer conforming to societal expectations
What if we never saw the fires
Reflecting on past mistakes and unaware of ongoing problems
The ones still burning down our path
Unaware of the consequences still affecting the present
Chasing vapor
Continuing the fruitless pursuit of the unattainable
Flying too close to the sun
Risking everything for ambitions without solid foundation
These wings are paper
Highlighting the fragility and insufficiency of personal capabilities
And nothing is enough
No achievement or possession brings lasting satisfaction
In the stillness of the fallout
In the aftermath of failure and disappointment
When all the paper turned to ash
All efforts and accomplishments turned to nothing
You were still standing on the shoreline
Despite challenges, someone remains steadfast
We have the same blood on our hands
Shared responsibility and guilt for past actions
Chasing vapor
Continuing the futile pursuit despite repeated failures
Flying too close to the sun
Risking too much for elusive goals without substantial reward
These wings are paper
Reiterating the vulnerability and inadequacy of personal efforts
And nothing is enough
Nothing in life ultimately satisfies or fulfills
