Paper pictures, floating like feathers, tumble to the oakwood floors. Father's hopes and, Mother's memories, years of life ignored. Captured, silent and still... You are a thought lost to time. A truly homeless child, in a house of broken promises, All you were was a snapshot of a smile. Pictures tried to hide the lie, (Oh no) But what you were living, was true life, (Oh yes it was) Falling to the ground while, (Falling, Falling) Everything around was burning. [tone change] Father left you, Mother forgot you, the world was oh so unforgiving. A village of love, surrounded you, took you in, so you could find the peace you held within. (Your soul) Pictures tried to hide the lie, (Oh no) But what you were living, was true life, (Oh yes it was) Falling to the ground while, (Falling, Falling) Everything around was burning. You could have held on to the photographs, but you chose to let them hit the ground, a time of your life captured, but your new life begins right now. Pictures tried to hide the lie, (Oh no) But what you were living, was true life, (Oh yes it was) Falling to the ground while, (Falling, Falling) Everything around was burning.
