Paper Skull

Esoterica

Compositor: Esoterica

I remember
Not a word
But it felt
Like a blue December
Watch the sunlight kiss the ground

Thinking
I was ash
Almost dead
Now you’re breathing embers
Now the long road back to life
I hope you're worth the fight

I papered over holes in my mind
I’ve been down this road a thousand times
To anyone who cares to look inside
A paper skull is all you're gonna find

I remember
How those eyes
Winter fires
Made me reimagine
How the pieces really fit
I'm only a little bit

I'm thinking
What you say
Watch your face
Now you hand me paper
I can't fool you now
Though you're still around

I papered over holes in my mind
I’ve been down this road a thousand times
To anyone who dares to look inside
A paper skull is all you're gonna find
