Alex Ketner After listening to "Palabras de Papel" on an 'episode' of Welcome to Nightvale, I fell in love with it. I showed it to my previous Spanish teacher and she thought the lyrics were very profound. I really connected with the lyrics earlier in the year, and it really helped me out. Give it a listen.

lyrics

PALABRAS DE PAPEL

Un sueño de negras alas te cubrió,
A lo lejos oí un jarrón que se rompió;
Bajo la arena sin poder salir
Quise darte mis ganas de vivir.

A través de aquella puerta de cristal
Tus ojos perdidos quería encontrar;
Un hilo invisible me lleva hacia ti,
Prefiero pensar que aún te acuerdas de mí.

Hoy echo a volar palabras de papel
En el atardecer.
Y un árbol se incendia en la noche
Sin saber qué hacer.

Hoy todos tus besos igual que una flor
Están enterrados en mi corazón.
La lluvia gritando que tú ya no estás
Me tiende el paraguas de la soledad.
