Paper thin

I know you'll never see
The way things were, the way they'll be
Because both ways look the same

And I can't block the thought
That you're still here, and that's not your fault
There's no one left to blame

You never touch the breeze
You just pick your time to leave

You never saw the sun, you never needed faith
They're only paper thin, the walls that keep us safe
You never touch the breeze, you never felt the cold
It's only paper thin, a life we try to hold

You don't do 'going back'
And blaming fate you don't do that
You take it as it's served
And you just sit and wait
Absorb the news and tell things straight
It's more than we deserve

You never felt so old
You just need a hand to hold

You never saw the sun, you never needed faith
They're only paper thin, the walls that keep us safe
You never touch the breeze, you never felt the cold
It's only paper thin, a life we try to hold

You just can't win
You've given everything to keep the truth within
You just can't win
You've given everything to keep the truth within
You just can't win
You've given everything to keep the truth within

You never saw the sun, you never needed faith
They're only paper thin, the walls that keep us safe
You never touch the breeze, you never felt the cold
It's only paper thin, a life we try to hold

Paper thin
You just can't win
You've given everything to keep the truth within
Paper thin
You just can't win
You've given everything to keep the truth within

Paper thin
You never touch the breeze
You just pick your time to leave
You've given everything to keep the truth within
Paper thin
You never felt so old
You just need a hand to hold
You' ve given everything to keep the truth within

Paper thin
You never touch the breeze
You just pick your time to leave
You've given everything to keep the truth within

Paper thin
You never felt so old
You just need a hand to hold
