They tend to misunderstand the paper man

With scissor hands who watches the hourglass for grains of sand

To fall and fall again as he pretends

That everything he lays his hands on doesn't turn to shreds

But why oh why does he persist to hide

When they insist he try to come outside

From the shell he lives inside

Now he's been hypnotized and

Despite the lies he sits and waits to die

'Cause he can't find no words to explain the rain

All his emotions are transformed and now become pain

He's alive in a black hole empty in space

And he sits in front of the mirror and he's face to face

With the sadness, confusion his patience he's losing

He's substance abusing he's one with the music

And he needs a little something to dial it all back

'Cause he's running in a race but he's not on track

Love don't live here anymore, it's been cold since you went away

Now I've been trying to get myself together, is there something I can say that'll make you stay

Love don't live here anymore, it's been cold since you went away

I've been trying to get my head together, but things just don't seem to go my way

Love can be so cold

Love can be so cold

All I see when I'm looking at you is me

And everyday gets a little bit harder

Like a piece of my life's puzzle that’s been slipped under the carpet

Until this day I'm feeling like I'm never gonna find it

I smoke a cigarette and hope for the best

But sometimes that cigarette is just smoke in the chest,

I lay in bed but it's nothing new with getting rest

Instead I use it as an escape from all the mess

Nothing seems to matter I'm only getting sadder n sadder

'Cause I'm not even sure what I'm after

I know my life's a disaster and I better straighten it out

And stand tall or fall victim of getting caught in

A spiraling downfall of emotion that I call

Devotion and destruction of everything and it's my fault

I'm hoping to try more let's open up my door

And let em know that I'm bringing me back like encore

Love don't live here anymore, it's been cold since you went away

Now I've been trying to get myself together, is there something I can say that'll make you stay

Love don't live here anymore, it's been cold since you went away

I've been trying to get my head together, but things just don't seem to go my way

I'm an example of a bad example and as ample as it may seem

A sample of this poisonous apple. I maybe rattle a daydream

But I'm giving you reality checks and if you get it then it's properly spent

If you can't handle it yet gimme a sec

I'll make ya proud of me instead of surrounding me

Totally hounding me expecting me to be like all the rest

And I gotta be honest I'm not sure who the fuck I am on a constant basis

So many faceless faces that are faced with

"Who the fuck am I?" what a shame it's

Not so much the lies I'm just lost in my mind

Trying to find what it is that makes me feel right inside

And I'm submerged by the urge to make it by day and night

I'm in the struggle looking to fight for the right

To be more than just alright...

And I'm looking for more light so I can see what they got in store for my life

Love don't live here anymore, it's been cold since you went away

Now I've been trying to get myself together, is there something I can say that'll make you stay

Love don't live here anymore, it's been cold since you went away

I've been trying to get my head together, but things just don't seem to go my way

Ohhhooohhhooohhh

Love can be so cold
