lyrics

Paper Mâché
Churned by the fear of the storieless age
So I took some lines from another page
And fixed with sticks and paper paste
A look betwixt of the flesh of face
The sting on the cheek of the over exposed
When an open face shows all it knows
The less I show the more you hide
And the more we retreat just a little inside
Hind each neew strip on an old mache
All the perils of youth lay further away

The role of a life
The love that it missed
The looks we stage
When we try to live

Flying my feathers in the grand parade
So sure of the story of the part I played
But a ghastly tap left me spun in place
Turned to the child before the feeling strayed
Reminded that I haven’t felt pure for days
So trapped in the art of saving face
We cull, we pull, we pilfer, we clutch
At the things we feel we need around us
Our lens has lost the objectivus
In the wandering orbit of gravitas
Shuck the costume that betrayed our trust
Before the husk gets shucked from us

If you find who’s to blame
For the love that you miss
Face your little fears
And give a little kiss

Cry out a sweet release
Euphoria’s deities
Will pull on the little strings
The crown that you wear with ease
Letting your tired mind sing
Lifting the weight it brings
