Lyrics
Paper Sun
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Does it hurt to remember
Does it help to forget
Do you know what you started
When you lit the fuse of regret
There's not a reason why you've come undone
There's nothing left to justify, this can't go on
There's nothing left inside as I walk this broken land
Cause you're living on a paper sun
Blind to all the damage done
Living on a paper sun
Waiting for the tide to turn
Living on a paper sun
You can't hide and you can't run
All your dreams have come and gone
Living on a paper sun
Do you still hear 'em screamin'
And does the fear make you run
Is the anger inside of you
A gift from father to son
I don't believe in you, you've come undone
I don't believe in what you do, this can't go on
I don't believe in you as I walk this broken land
Cause you're living on a paper sun
Blind to all the damage done
Living on a paper sun
Waiting for the tide to turn
Living on a paper sun
You can't hide and you can't run
All your dreams have come and gone
Living on a paper
You will discover the way to suffer
And like no other you feed the fire
There's not a reason why you've come undone
There's nothing left to justify, this can't go on
There's nothing left inside as I walk this broken land
Cause you're living on a paper sun
Blind to all the damage done
Living on a paper sun
Waiting for the tide to turn
Living on a paper sun
Waiting for the night
All your dreams have come and gone
