Intro Verse I was born into this terror, unsuspecting as I was Just a lifeward child, not aware of all the misery No idea of the blame this world already had to shoulder As an untold crime came down and sealed my fate No premonition of the doom impending Not knowing of my strife for life to come Soon gone were the years of my levity Eleven summers before darkness fell Keep this paper crane, one of a thousand There never was a guilt to burden myself My hopeless cry, it went unheard And unlike me, you knew there were no gods to save me Verse Still no idea of the blame this world would have to shoulder As for one last time I bid the cranes farewell Passing by like timid ghosts Summoners of a placid world Never reaching me Masters of a peaceful life Moving on to stainless shores Never teaching me Bridge Now I lay my aching hands to rest As I bid my crane farewell And I wish for an echo of my forlorn life to be your melody Keep this paper crane, one of a thousand There never was a guilt to burden myself My hopeless cry, it went unheard And unlike me, you knew there were no gods to save me All hope in vain, you just murdered them Banished the crane from the meadows of this life
