Paper Tiger Lyrics
[Verse]
I'll never hold you back
And I won't force my will
I will no longer do the devil's wishes
Something I read on a dollar bill
A paper tiger can't
Tell you where he stands
We'll go back tonight the way that we came
I'm not dumb, just want to hold your hand
[Chorus]
So alright
Where we want to be
And alright
What that we could be
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
So alright
Where we want to be
So alright
What that we could be
[Outro]
Oh, we could go kick down some doors together
Stay out till morning, sharp as knives
The new war will get you, it will not protect you
But I will be there with you when you turn out the light
Said I will be there with you when you turn out the light
I will be there with you when you turn out the light
