Paper Boat
Navigating Love's Turbulence: The Poetic Journey of 'Paper Boat'
Lyrics
You think everyones the one
You believe everyone is "the one" or special.
You trust them to let you down
You expect them to disappoint or betray your trust.
Now you're lying on the floor
You find yourself in a vulnerable or defeated state.
In this go and get up town
You're in a challenging situation and need to rise above it.
You sail a paper boat on an inky sea
You navigate life delicately like a fragile paper boat on uncertain waters.
Still you don't know why you're alone
You're still uncertain why you feel isolated or lonely.
You left him to be free
You chose to let someone go for their freedom.
But freedom has a price
Freedom comes with its own challenges and sacrifices.
By loving him you died
Your love for someone led to your emotional demise.
By leaving you died twice
Leaving also caused a form of inner death or loss.
You sail a paper boat on an inky sea
You continue navigating life's uncertainties with fragility.
Still you don't know why you're alone
Despite your efforts, you're still unsure why you're alone.
Blow, don't blow the candle out
Don't extinguish the metaphorical light, as it helps you see through difficulties.
No, you'll need it to see
The light is essential to navigate through challenging times.
Through the murky hours
You need the light to guide you through difficult periods.
Till you sleep
Until you find peace or resolution in sleep.
Tell me what you know
You're seeking knowledge or understanding from someone.
I don't know that much
You admit to not having much knowledge or insight.
Just when you leave you leave
When you depart, you don't maintain communication.
You never keep in touch
You tend to disconnect and not keep in touch with others.
You sail a paper boat on an inky sea
You're still navigating life's uncertainties delicately.
But still you don't know why you're alone
Despite your efforts, you're still uncertain why you're alone.
