Paper People MAG
Little paper people
 In this little paper town
 The white world stays still
 As I pause to look around
 Paper people with paper dogs,
 Paper children playing with paper balls
 I wonder if they know
 That I can see straight through them all
 With one slight breeze 
 They could be gone with the wind
 Leaving no mark on what was left behind
 But me, I am different
 My shoes leave footprints all over this
 Perfect paper world
 If you cut me, I will bleed
 If you tease me, I might cry
 And one day my heart's beat 
 Will come to a stop
 But before that day comes,
 I will make a difference
 Unlike these paper people
 I am made of something stronger
 I am made of bricks
 Their paper words can't hurt me,
 Paper hammers won't tear me down
 So while these paper people are bothered
 With their paper people things,
 I will be home waiting
 With my strong and human wings
 Anticipating the day when I finally will fly
 They better watch out for when I break down
 All these paper doors
