PAPER & GLUE

OH LOOK AT THE VIEW
LOOK AT THE PEOPLE RUNNING
THEY’VE SO MUCH TO DO
BETTER THAN YOU
BETTER THAN TAKE WHAT’S COMING
NOTHING’S EVER NEW

AND EVERYTHING IT LOOKS SO GOOD FROM HERE
LIVING OUT A DREAM I’VE HAD FOR A YEAR
LIVING OUT A DREAM I’VE HAD

ON THE AVENUE
THEY’RE TAKING THE TREES DOWN
BUT THEY’RE ASKING ME AND YOU
WHAT CAN WE DO?
WE CAN STAND IN A CIRCLE PAYING TRIBUTE
WITH PAPER & GLUE

AND EVERYTHING IT LOOKS SO GOOD FROM HERE
LIVING OUT A DREAM I’VE HAD FOR A YEAR
LIVING OUT A DREAM I’VE HAD

I WAS SURE I’D MOVED TO HEAVEN
BUT THE FEELING DIDN’T LAST
WE’VE NEVER BEEN FORGIVEN FOR THE THINGS DONE IN THE PAST
I OFTEN STAND AND STARE AT YOU
PROTECTED BY THE GLASS
BUT I’VE NOTHING MORE TO SAY TO YOU
SO PLEASE DON’T EVER ASK

OH HIDDEN FROM VIEW
THE PLACE THAT WE CAME FROM
HOW I MISS THOSE ELEGANT LINES
AND THE SUN ON THE BLINDS
THAT BECKONED ME DOWN HERE
FROM WHAT I KNOW NOW
WERE SUNNIER CLIMBS


AND EVERYTHING IT LOOKS SO GOOD FROM HERE
LIVING OUT A DREAM I’VE HAD FOR A YEAR
LIVING OUT A DREAM I’VE HAD

I WAS SURE I’D MOVED TO HEAVEN
BUT THE FEELING DIDN’T LAST
WE’VE NEVER BEEN FORGIVEN FOR THE THINGS DONE IN THE PAST
I OFTEN STAND AND STARE AT YOU
PROTECTED BY THE GLASS
BUT I’VE NOTHING MORE TO SAY TO YOU
SO PLEASE DON’T EVER ASK

I NEVER KNEW THAT I HAD BEEN HERE BEFORE
THEY’RE RUNNING THROUGH THE HOUSES
THEY’RE BREAKING DOWN DOORS
NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO
THEY’LL FOLLOW YOU FOLLOW YOU FOLLOW YOU

I WAS SURE I’D MOVED TO HEAVEN
BUT THE FEELING DIDN’T LAST
WE’VE NEVER BEEN FORGIVEN FOR THE THINGS DONE IN THE PAST
I OFTEN STAND AND STARE AT YOU
PROTECTED BY THE GLASS
BUT I’VE NOTHING MORE TO SAY TO YOU
SO PLEASE DON’T EVER ASK
