lyrics

Shadows follow falling flames
Chasing that which can’t be names
Reasons change like seasons
Don’t believe a word I say

Sunshine showed up found us stone
Ready for the anti-dote
Powder white like wings of night time
Flying paper moths

Upon a great migration
Its bound to get down soon
With powder on paper wing
It clings and brings us home

Ship wreck reject beneath the moon
Cut them god damn anchors loose
Forgotten free you may believe
Forgotten you are free

Cities sink into the sand
Forgotten dreams recur again
While all the little fishes make their wishes
To be birds

Upon a great migration
Its bound to get down soon
With the powder on a paper wing
It clings and brings us home

Upon a great migration
Its bound to get down soon
With the powder on your paper wings
It clings and brings us home

With the powder on your paper wings
It clings and brings us home

With the powder on your paper wings
It clings and brings us home
