The Weeks - Paper Mâché Houses Lyrics

Paper mache houses
Build them up with nothing else
Tell me what the sound is

Telephone keeps ringing out
Heard them in the next room
Don't know whose side was wrong
I really hope it stops soon
Or someone turn the TV on

Talking to your best friend
Never knew your middle name
Stay until the show ends
Or at least until the latest train

Held the bottle like a baby
Protect it till we got back home
Drank upon the rooftops
And wonder where the city's gone

Wake up wake up wake up
Why don't you take a little time to breathe it in
Don't try to tame the sun but you could try to feel it on your skin
Could of let the whole world just hold me back
I'm steady making choices from the life I had
Can't we just talk about it
I know that we can work this out

Talk around in circles
Speak until we both get tired
Look up at the street lights
And wonder how the world is wired

Pressure makes me sleepy
Avoid the stuff at every cost
Wind up at the same spot
And relish in the time we lost

Wake up wake up wake up
Why don't you take a little time to breathe it in
Don't try to tame the sun but you could try to feel it on your skin
Could of let the whole world just hold me back
I'm steady making choices from the life I had
Can't we just talk about it
I know that we can work this out

Wake up wake up wake up
Why don't you take a little time to breathe it in
Don't try to tame the sun but you could try to feel it on your skin
Could of let the whole world just hold me back
I'm steady making choices from the life I had
Can't we just talk about it
I know that we can work this out
