Abdullah Siddiqui - Paper Skin Lyrics

All our wants and needs have been sated
We have escaped the cruelty of the night
Calm is for the weak and the sainted
We want something that we just cannot hide
Drag me to hell and back
I'm free as a bird
But lock me up, keep me trapped
I can't say a word
Paper skin unstable
How I crave to be a savior of days
If passion is a fable
I'll be ready
I'll be able to decay
And if things do go to plan
We'll just have to start all over again
I'm static, motionless in the abyss
I'm drowning deeper into the mundane
It cannot get much crueler now than this
I'm quiet now but I am not yet tame
Oh, drag me to hell and back
I'm free as a bird
But lock me up keep me trapped
I can't say a word
Paper skin unstable
How I crave to be a savior of days
If passion is a fable
I'll be ready
I'll be able to decay
And if things do go to plan
We'll just have to start all over again
No more reasons to cry the night away
So I'll just sit so silently cause the night is here to stay
No more reasons to cry the night away
So I'll just sit so silently cause the night is here to stay
So I'll just sit so silently cause the night is here to stay
Paper skin unstable
How I crave to be a savior of days
If passion is a fable
I'll be ready
I'll be able to decay
And if things do go to plan
We'll just have to start all over again

All our wants and needs have been sated
We have escaped the cruelty of the night
Calm is for the weak and the sainted
We want something that we just cannot hide
Drag me to hell and back
I'm free as a bird
But lock me up, keep me trapped
I can't say a word
Paper skin unstable
How I crave to be a savior of days
If passion is a fable
I'll be ready
I'll be able to decay
And if things do go to plan
We'll just have to start all over again
I'm static, motionless in the abyss
I'm drowning deeper into the mundane
It cannot get much crueler now than this
I'm quiet now but I am not yet tame
Oh, drag me to hell and back
I'm free as a bird
But lock me up keep me trapped
I can't say a word
Paper skin unstable
How I crave to be a savior of days
If passion is a fable
I'll be ready
I'll be able to decay
And if things do go to plan
We'll just have to start all over again
No more reasons to cry the night away
So I'll just sit so silently cause the night is here to stay
No more reasons to cry the night away
So I'll just sit so silently cause the night is here to stay
So I'll just sit so silently cause the night is here to stay
Paper skin unstable
How I crave to be a savior of days
If passion is a fable
I'll be ready
I'll be able to decay
And if things do go to plan
We'll just have to start all over again
