Paper Wings Lyrics by Barclay James Harvest, The

Paper Wings Lyrics

    His crazy frame against the dawn
    His hungry leap and ragged fall
    A suicidal perch is now laid bare
    To searching eyes and empty stares
    A fearful silence hits the crowd
    The air hangs heavy with the sound
    Of useless wings against the morning sky
    As paper yields before their eyes

    Oh, can you see him now?
    A broken man without a dream
    Oh, can you hear him now?
    A futile laugh above the screams
