Make a paper plane
And fly away
Above this idle town
Where the people that once loved you
Are nowhere to be found
Spend most nights looking at the sky
Wishing you could escape
Arms aching to fly
They're shouting in a distant room
Got to get out now, got to get out now
Before they see through you
And it's a long way down
Fly your paper plane over this idle town
Got to get out while you can
Will they really notice when you're gone?
Take your paper plane
And fly away
Above the ones that did you wrong
They will know how much they hurt you when you're gone
Got no tears left to cry
Spend your nights feeling empty
Staring blankly at the sky
They're shouting in a distant room
Got to get out now, got to get out now
Before they see through you
And it's a long way down
Fly your paper plane over this idle town
Got to get out while you can
Will they really notice when you're gone?
They don't understand no matter how you try to make them see
They don't understand you didn't ask for this reality
They don't understand
No, they don't understand
No, they don't understand
Take your paper plane
And fly away
