Paper Knees

Can you hear me hopeless
Louder than ever before
Every piece of me that's broken
I've got a million more for you
And I heard you that night
You were screaming out that car
Hell if I really mind
If it's who you are
I'm alone
Till I hear you I hear you I hear you
Coming home
You'll be waiting that night
You'll be sitting on the street
Wearing black and white
With red underneath
Take that love that I've earned
Hold it close in my arms
Keep your paper knees closed and
Don't cry too hard
I'm alone
Till I hear you I hear you I hear you
Coming home
