Paper Wings - Velvet Mourning

🪽 PAPER WINGS 🪽 What do you do when the thing destroying you is the only thing that makes you feel alive? Inspired by the myth of Icarus, “Paper Wings” tells the story of a man trapped in a prison of loneliness, building fragile wings from memories, letters, photographs, and regrets. Knowing they will burn, he takes flight anyway—chasing a ghost through the sky and falling into the same cycle again and again. A dark, cinematic anthem about grief, obsession, self-destruction, and the things we refuse to let go. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎵 Performed by Velvet Mourning ✍️ Lyrics written by Joshua Gurganus 🎼 AI-generated music and vocals 🖤 Released by Emberstone Records 2026 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Featured Lyric: “These paper wings weren’t built to last I know they’ll burn before I’m free But I’d rather fall from heaven’s gates Than spend another night with me” ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If you enjoyed this song, consider liking, commenting, and subscribing.
