Forrest Isn’t Dead – Paper Kingdom Lyrics
This razor blade on my tongue
The gasoline in my lungs
How could I feel safe like this
My paper kingdom to crumbs
It’s keep me from the sun
I’ll never feel safe like this
Surrendering
My memories to you
Disheartening
To feel the way I do
I’m tired like an all night drive
Only bullets and the cheapest
Wine we could find
I’m reminded of when I was nine
I felt so alive, will I survive
It’s the sharp long teeth biting into me
(While I try to sleep, while I try to sleep)
My kingdom shakes with anxiety
(While I try to be, I can never be)
My bones are paper come and see
(I feel so weak, I need to eat)
I’m under attack, I’m dying out
This paper kingdoms built of me
It feels like ice in my veins
It makes me think I’m insane
How could I still be like this
My paper kingdom in chains
My chest locked up with this pain
How could I still live like this
Surrendering
My memories to you
Disheartening
To feel the way I do
I’m tired like an all night drive
Only bullets and the cheapest
Wine we could find
I’m reminded of when I was nine
I felt so alive, will I survive
It’s the sharp long teeth biting into me
(While I try to sleep, while I try to sleep)
My kingdom shakes with anxiety
(While I try to be, I can never be)
My bones are paper come and see
(I feel so weak, I need to eat)
I’m under attack, I’m dying out
This paper kingdoms built of me
This lifestyle is accompanied by this
Obituaries you sing me to sleep
Farewell, goodnight
Paint me in black
As we reach the end
My nine volt heart is about to explode
When they all surround me
Farewell, goodnight
Paint me in black
As we reach the end
This kingdom of paper survives having
You beside me to sing me to sleep
Farewell, goodnight
As I fade away
As we reach the end
