Description
-Intro-What defines us is paper
It is proof that we exist
But to erase that sheet
Defiles us completely?
Once I wrote my thoughts on a piece of paper
Then I bared my soul for all to see
A fire in my heart for those words to burn
Once again in my lungs they join with me
-Chorus 1-
Fuse with my core
My will lost to all
Voice silent within
Living in my sins
Don't doubt the power of a slip of paper
It's said the pen's mightier than the sword
What the fuck good does a blade do -hell
When your demise is written by another?
-Chorus 2-
Following orders
Taking shit
Fuck this world
I'm sick of it
Life is a game without happy endings
We are all ultimately destined to die
Aging is constant and time is endless
The only thing left is a certificate
-Chorus 3-
Of what we've lost
Of what we had
Of what we've done
Of who we were
Life begins with but a footnote
It ends in our deathnote
Journals, Diaries, Blogs
Entries into planners and the "News"
I opened the paper today
I read all of the 'obits
Tried to fathom the lives
Of all who passed alone
-Chorus 4 (Final)-
Of what they've lost
Of what they had
Of what they've done
Of who they where
-Outro-
And of those who were not there
In those overrated papers
Eventually I will join you
Voices unable to speak
So now I burn my paper
For my voiceless friends
In memorium...
But not yet...
My fire still burns
