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'll never touch the breeze
You'll 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 touched the breeze
You never felt the cold
It's only paper thin
The life we try to hold
You don't do 'going back'
But 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 touched the breeze
You never felt the cold
It's only paper thin
The 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 saw the sun)
You never needed faith
(You never needed faith)
They're only paper thin
(They're only paper thin)
The walls that keep us safe
(The walls that keep us safe)
You never touched the breeze
(You never touched the breeze)
You never felt the cold
(You never felt the cold)
It's only paper thin
(It's only paper thin)
The 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
