[Verse 1]
I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

[Chorus]
In my field of paper flowers (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And candy clouds of lullaby (Paper flowers)
I lie inside myself for hours (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And watch my purple sky fly over me (Paper flowers)

[Verse 2]
Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos, your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape

[Chorus]
If you need to leave the world you live in (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Lay your head down and stay a while (Paper flowers)
Though you may not remember dreaming (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Something waits for you to breathe again (Paper flowers)

[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
(Paper flowers)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Paper flowers)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
[Chorus]
In my field of paper flowers (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And candy clouds of lullaby (Paper flowers)
I lie inside myself for hours (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And watch my purple sky fly over me (Paper flowers)
