Paper Bag Lyrics by Anna Nalick

Wreck of the Day (Reissue)

2005

[Verse 1]
She don't run from the sun no more
She boxed her shadow and she won
Said, "I can see you laugh through these bottle caps
And this wire around my neck ain't there for fun"
[Pre-Chorus]
But someday we'll all be old
And I'll be so damn beautiful
[Chorus]
Meanwhile, I'll hide my head here in this paper bag
'Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me
And it'll be okay, fly little bee away
To where there's no more rain and I can be me
[Verse 2]
Yeah, they talk about her
She smiles like she's so tough
She says "Hey, can you talk a little louder?
I don't think my heart is broken enough"
[Pre-Chorus]
But someday we'll all be old
And I'll be so damn beautiful
[Chorus]
Meanwhile I'll hide my head here in this paper bag
'Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me
And it'll be okay, fly little bee away
To where there's no more rain and I can be
[Bridge]
Some days I wade into the indigo
Singing that song on the radio, I blame these puddles on the rain
You know I gotta keep these cheeks dry today
Gotta keep my cheating strategy
And baby, I'm gonna have it made
[Pre-Chorus]
But someday we'll all be old
And I'll be so damn beautiful
[Chorus]
So I'll hide my head here in this paper bag
'Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me
And it'll be okay, fly little bee away
To where there's no more rain and I can be me, yeah
(On my way)
(Paper bag)
(Can't see you then)
(You can't see)
Meanwhile, I'll hide my head here in this paper bag
'Cause if I can't see you, then you can't see me
And it'll be okay, fly little bee away
To where there's no more rain and I can be me
[Outro]
Where I can be me, yeah
I can be me
(Paper bag)
(Bee away)
(There's no more rain)
Where I can be me
