Paperfaces

Staring at paperfaces
Expressions like empty pages
Day after day

Waiting for the lights to change now
Reaching for a cloud to come down
And cover me

Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown

Waiting for the world to change now
Dissolution takes a bit out
And swallows me

Looking for a way to get out
Wishing that the rush would come down
And smother me

Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown

If you can learn to be yourself, then that's okay
If you can find a reason now, don't drift away

Walking down streets to nowhere
Stepping on feet with no cares
Losing myself

Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown

Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown

Slide away
Slide away
Slide away
