Paper Lung

It's too late,

It's too late now,

To pry away,

To pry away.

My candle burns on both ends so where does it leave us

Standing emptier than we ever left you

With your head in the water it's getting harder to breathe

So stand up, stand up

It's too late to pry away

It's too late to pry away

Don't get me wrong I'm just as scared as you are now

You dropped us off here with no direction

But you never even tried to fight the current

Watch the water pouring faster into your lungs

So breathe in, breathe in

It's too late to pry away

It's too late to pry away

But it's hard to hear me when you're sinking down here

I wanna see you wash it down, wash it down

How can you sleep here I bear the weight of your world

I don't believe in a single word you sold to me, sold to me

I bear your burden for the last time I swear I'm done with all of this

It's too late to pry you away from the undertow

I watch it take you then I walk away
