Title: 'The Paper Cathedral'

Verse 1:

Driftwood monarchs, they sail through the air,

Threadbare kingdoms unravel, beware!

Silver owls hum a hymn in disguise,

Echoes are scribbled in charcoal skies.
Step through the mirror, but don’t meet your gaze.
The moon folds its hands in a lavender haze.


Chorus:

Paper cathedral, it crumbles at dawn,

Candlelight whispers of dreams that are gone.

Sing to the shadows, they’ll answer in rhyme,

Here where the clocks are unthreading time.

Verse 2:

Tangerine pilgrims in spirals ascend,

Paths that begin where the mountains might bend.

Laughter is bottled and corked in the sea,

Released when the tide hums in F minor key.
The stars weave a web out of jasmine and slate,

Each thread’s a secret that rewrites your fate.


Chorus



Music break

Verse 3
:
Marmalade prisms ignite in the rain,

Umbrellas are blooming like suns in refrain.

The jesters are painting the air into streams,

While fragments of silence are stitching your dreams.


Chorus

Part of chorus is repeated
