Paper Trail

It seems the pen is so much mightier
than the sword that slices for answers
you distract me with a smooth sleight of hand
this lab rat is running out of gas
a policy of don't tell and never ask
this unholy alliance couldn't be more bland
It's my collective amnesia
It only helps me to forget so much
reinforcing i don't need ya
think that be enough
In the center with all rifles drawn
smiling at the targets my eyes are on
the same ol' shit couldn't be more stale
and i got proof with a paper trail
The boats sail in different directions
stark naked without protection
keep tight with all my freudian slips
It's my collective amnesia
It only helps me to forget so much
reinforcing i don't need ya
isn't that enough
In the center with all rifles drawn
smiling at the targets my eyes are on
the same ol' shit couldn't be more stale
and i got proof with a paper trail
Standing in the center with rifles drawn
smiling at the targets my eyes are on
empty out every shattered shell
cause i got the goods with this paper trail.
