Paper and Tin Lyrics

Paper and tin

A feeling within

Your skin is too thin my friend.

Lighted refrains

Frozen remains

My chains are stained with sin

Small tows, big cities, and masters of pity

Stand waiting out there on the shore

Asking the daughter, if somebody caught her, after she snuck out the backdoor

I remember the sunset, but I'm placing my last bet on the way that you smile as you snore

Don't ask me for more

This is all I have

Paper and tin

A feeling within

Your skin is too thin my friend

Lighted refrains

Frozen remains

My chains are stained with sin

Don't ask me for less, because I'll never guess

the thoughts you're choosing to hide,

Down by the river and deep in your liver mistaking your fear for your pride

The years become ages, the bittersweet pages of notebooks wash out with the tide

While the river inside

Makes its way to the shore

Paper and tin

A feeling within

Your skin is too thin my friend

Lighted refrains

Frozen remains

My chains are stained with sin

Don't ask me for more

This is all that I have

Paper and tine

And a feeling within

The touch of your skin

Again
