Paper Crown

When they gave you roses

And believed your wild excuses you were

Sealing the deal

Halfway down the road and ain't it funny how

The ghosts they fade and suddenly appear

You went too far

Oh woman now you're feeling the fear

'Cause you've never been alone before

And the wolf is at the door

Now it's better if you hold your breath

And don't look down

At the pages of your paper crown

You reached out for more

And as the waves hit at the shore you felt

The fading of your will

Choke back the matter

From the bottom of the ladder ask me

If I love you still

You went too far

Oh woman now you're feeling the fear

'Cause you've never been alone before

And the wolf is at the door

And the hounds of hell they won't lie down

On the ashes of your paper crown

In the bright light of the sun

Well you make sure everyone

Could see your face

You make fun of everyone who falls

But meantime they were saving you a place

'Cause you've never been alone before

And the wolf is at the door

And the talking heads don't make a sound

At the ageing of your paper crown

Better if you don't look down

At the pages of your paper crown
