Paper Thin Lyrics by Empath-P

2015

[Verse]
Caught staring at the clock again
Think I’m ready now so let’s begin
To start counting down, I never get to one, drifting on
Between a web of silver dreams
I am flying now on better wings
With nothing to hold me back, here I can be completely free

[Pre-Chorus]
To head towards the morning, chase after the sun
And bring back a piece for everyone
It all seems so clear, impossible to break
Please stay that way when I wake

[Chorus]
But I was made paper thin
Inside this world you need tougher skin
And I can’t hide the way that I feel
When it’s a wound that just doesn’t heal
But if you’ve a blank page to lend
Then I’ll let my whole life be the pen
I will write a story within
So you can see that my heart is not paper thin

[Bridge]
You give me a golden sword and
I’ll fight until the end, through the flame
You give me a hopeless cause and
I’ll cry out to defend all the same
I can run out past tomorrow
Even if you don’t have the strength to flee
Just give me a northern light
I can follow, though I know

[Chorus]
That I was made paper thin
Inside this world you need tougher skin
And I can’t hide the way that I feel
When it’s a wound that just doesn’t heal
But if you’ve a blank page to lend
Then I’ll let my whole life be the pen
I will write a story within
So you can see that my heart is not paper thin
