Paper lions

Calling out for paper lions
What else am i supposed to do
Another evening without something new

Goodbyes are never spoken
And we don't ever use
Words that seem to stay frozen until they're overdue

Kept up both sides
Hung up, now dry
Taken for ride

What does it take to stay focused
Why does one have to choose
Between love and living a sullen truth

Stricken of guilt for taking
All your effort and time
Don't let me takе any space in your mind

Calling out with knuckles bruised
But you don't know to lick your wounds

Turn around 'causе i fear the silence
Don't know what i want to do at all
But would you be there with the alcohol

Goodbyes are never spoken
And we won't ever use
Words that seem to stay frozen until they're overdue
