Paper Moons and Concrete Skies

Some boys build rockets. Others draw them in the dust and still take off. This song is for the second kind... ThunderousSilence © 2025 https://suno.com/@thunderoussilence ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ [Verse 1] He built a world from folded stars and watched it drift above the cars Chalk planets drawn on alley floors hid the sirens behind closed doors [Verse 2] His paper moon was torn by rain but still he flew - through glass and grain Concrete skies don’t answer why but he kept asking, eye to sky [Pre-Chorus] If dreams have weight, how long can they float? [Chorus] I saw him reach for something light that wouldn't fall He whispered songs to things unseen and named them all I heard him hum against the grey until it split [Post-Chorus] Cardboard wings taped with hope almost flew almost... fragile dreams in small hands held too tight cracked [Bridge] There’s a boy in the city writing letters to the sky He folds his questions into cranes and lets them try to fly [Final Chorus] I saw him reach through concrete haze and touch the moon I heard him speak with paper breath and dream too soon [END]
