Paper Thin Lyrics

Like secret pages ripped away
We hide in the books that we have read
We tell our secrets to strangers
We know our lives are paper thin

Another night in the city that I'm wasting, I'm wasting
My heart has lost it's shine and it's fading, it's fading
And after all this time that I'm saving, I'm saving
She turns her gaze to me and I said nothing, nothing

I walked the streets in the darkness
Ain't got no heart, no stars to guide me home
She smiles and stands and looks at me
She always wore that black dress well

Another night in the city that I'm wasting, I'm wasting
My heart has lost it's shine and it's fading, it's fading
And after all this time that I'm saving, I'm saving
She turns her gaze to me and I said nothing, nothing

And after all this time
I cannot believe how blind I've been
And she was right to say
All those things that drove me away
And yes they drove me away

Another night in the city that she's wasting, she's wasting
Her heart has lost it's shine and it's fading, it's fading
And after all this time that she's saving, she's saving
She turns her gaze to me and I say nothing
