Paper Rose

Glass ball,

For your first born,

To see your road,

So he don't fall, no.

White swan,

A paper rose,

Watch you unfold,

Watch you unfold, oh.

Throwing stars,

Sharp as your tongue,

To cut your rope,

And let you go, oh.

Count your teeth,

Watching you speak,

Take what you're owed,

Take what you're owed, oh.

(We load dice, we load dice).

Why did you let me go?

There was hope in the hallelujahs.

There were notes in the begging bowl,

There was time but we never used it.

And it's too late to be sorry,

And it's too late to be bold,

And you're there but it's not your body,

And I tear like a paper rose.

Oh, oh, oh, ooh-ooh,

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh,

Oh, oh, oh, ooh-ooh,

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

White bowls,

A paper road

I see your ghost,

I see your bones, oh.

White frame,

You keep your shape,

I move you slow,

I move you slow, oh.

(Along life, we load dice).

Why did you let me go?

There was hope in the hallelujahs.

There were notes in the begging bowl,

There was time but we never used it.

And it's too late to be sorry,

And it's too late to be bold,

And you're there but it's not your body,

And I tear like a paper rose.

And I tear like a paper rose.

(Why did you let me go)?

(There was hope in the hallelujahs).

And I tear like a paper rose.

(Why did you let me go)?

(There was time but we).

And it's too late to be sorry,

And it's too late to be bold,

And you're there but it's not your body,

And I tear like a paper rose.
