Lyrics

Paper Shoes

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.

I fly, I soar this I adore

And then like a locomotive the sound of your sorrow comes

I'm tired of the way it feels

I only apologized to you to make you feel better

But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater

I'd rather be alone

You're 'bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers

But pain will roll off like water on feather

You'd fly, you'd soar

But then like a locomotive the sound of your sorrow comes

I'm tired of the way it feels

I only apologized to you to make you feel better

But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater

I'd rather be on my own

You're 'bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers

But pain will roll off like water on feathers

I'm tired of the way it feels

I only apologized to you to make you feel better

But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater

I'd rather be on my own

You're 'bout as reliable as paper shoes in bad weathers

But pain will roll off like water on feathers
