Paperthin Lyrics by In-Flight Safety

We Are an Empire, My Dear

2009

[Verse 1]
I know a lot's at stake
And I hope that I'll be safe for a while
Held in the arms of the strange
The birds fly south but the fear still remains
[Verse 2]
If you know a man of faith
Then I hope that you'll be safe in his arms
Shelled the grip of your home
Until the animals come 'round to your door
[Pre-Chorus]
Where I'll go
I don't know
[Chorus]
I don't know where the wind will take us
We're paper thin It's sure to break us
Out of luck and out of purpose
I don't want this axe to murder us
[Verse 3]
I know a lot's a stake
But I hope that I'll be safe for a while
How could you let us down
Hiding all the keys in your crown
[Pre-Chorus]
Where I'll go
I don't know, I don't
Where I'll go
I don't know
[Chorus]
I don't know where the wind will take us
We're paper thin It's sure to break us
Out of luck and out of purpose
I don't want this axe to murder us
[Outro]
Where we belong
Where we belong
Where we belong
Where we belong
'Cause here is all
