    This is just a fun song I wrote. There.. really wasn't any inspiration. I sampled parts from Evanescence's "Imaginary"--the intro, outro and bridge. Please read and respond. Thanks.

    PAPER DREAMS

    [intro]
    In my field of paper flowers
    And candy clouds of lullaby
    I lay inside myself for hours
    And watch my purple sky fly over me

    [verse]
    Everything you see when you close your eyes
    Is nothing more than fiction and lies
    Every time you dream you feel like you’re fake
    And everything you live for is put at stake
    You sometimes feel as though you’re dying at night
    And your subtle screaming can’t make you all right
    The fiction we live is nothing more than unreal
    Please let me know the true way you feel
    I can save you from the darkest of your thoughts
    Just stay with me ‘cause you’re all that I’ve got

    [chorus]
    I will protect you from your paper dreams
    Because nothing that happens is what it seems
    And the scene around you is nothing but fiction
    Please let me take you from this evil addiction

    [verse]
    Sometimes you dream and you’re falling forever
    But you’re closer to the bottom more, never
    Just as you’re about to hit the solid ground
    You continue through and soar underground
    You fly on the back of a fiery red phoenix
    But you know it’s not real, how could you think this?
    Every time you scream the sounds are muffled
    Your clothes around you, they become ruffled
    The fake whispering wind blows through your hair
    When suddenly dark shadows give you a scare
    The paper monsters that are drawn onto the canvas
    Take you away and to them you hand this
    Your thoughts are given to away to the monsters inside
    They toss you aside and you run and hide
    The fiction we live is nothing more than unreal
    Please, please let me know the true way you feel
    I can’t save you unless you tell me what’s wrong
    Together we can find a place where we belong
    I can save you if you tell me your thoughts
    Please stay with me ‘cause you’re all that I’ve got

    [chorus]
    I will protect you from your paper dreams
    Because nothing that happens is what it seems
    And the scene around you is nothing but fiction
    Please let me take you from this evil addiction

    [chorus]
    I will protect you from your paper dreams
    Because nothing that happens is what it seems
    And the scene around you is nothing but fiction
    Please let me take you from this evil addiction

    [bridge]
    Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
    Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
    Oh, how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
    The goddess of imaginary light

    [chorus]
    I will protect you from your paper dreams
    Because nothing that happens is what it seems
    And the scene around you is nothing but fiction
    Please let me take you from this evil addiction

    [chorus]
    I will protect you from your paper dreams
    Because nothing that happens is what it seems
    And the scene around you is nothing but fiction
    Please let me take you from this evil addiction

    [outro]
    In my field of paper flowers
    And candy clouds of lullaby
    I lay inside myself for hours
    And watch my purple sky fly over me
