You folded promises out of fragile lines
Set them drifting on a midnight tide
They looked so real in the silver glow
But I see the cracks you thought I’d never know
I chased them down, believing they’d stay
But the water swallowed them anyway
Paper boats can’t weather the storm
They tear apart, they don’t keep you warm
Your lies sink deep, but I won’t drown
I’m stronger now, I’ll turn it around
From every mistake that cut me open
I rise again—unbroken
Your words dissolved like ink in rain
Left me haunted, but I’ve shed the chains
Every tear was a tidal wave
But I learned to swim, I learned to brave
The fire inside is burning clear
I won’t fall for illusions here
Paper boats can’t weather the storm
They tear apart, they don’t keep you warm
Your lies sink deep, but I won’t drown
I’m stronger now, I’ll turn it around
From every mistake that cut me open
I rise again—unbroken
Let the river carry what you built from deceit
I’m walking on water, I found my own beat
No fragile folds can bind me tight
I’ll sail with steel into the night
Paper boats can’t weather the storm
They tear apart, but I’ve been reborn
Your lies sank deep, but I won’t drown
I’m stronger now, I wear the crown
From every mistake that cut me open
I rise again—unbroken
Paper boats drift out of sight
I’m coming back, with fire and light
