Oil slick on contact lenses Paper cuts on velvet fingers Tie dyed bones to fix my weakness Glitter pills to cure this dullness Writhing nights in desolation Keep my eyes from staying open One day you'll see I'll be happy Opalescent eyes gone glassy Clouds seem to fill my head In a life so dead Light like infrared Clear my mind again Painting stains on paper Heart to heave heavier I can't be on my own Paper hearts light as a stone Help me to get through this Teach me how to help my self Cause I can't be on my own Paper hearts light as a stone In the end I'm feeling empty Up and down through hills and valleys Try to keep me from the sink so suddenly Giving up seems better for me 5am in bubble gum I Feel like I just can't move at all In a state of nervousness I Breathe again to count the numbers Clouds seem to fill my head In a life so dead Light like infrared Clear my mind again Painting stains on paper Heart to heave heavier I can't be on my own Paper hearts light as a stone Help me to get through this Teach me how to help my self Cause I can't be on my own Paper hearts light as a stone Sky smeared blue like the souls of stars Shimmer pink on clouds of ours Smile bright as day Make the pain go away Painting stains on paper Heart to heave heavier I can't be on my own Paper hearts light as a stone Help me to get through this Teach me how to help my self Cause I can't be on my own Paper hearts light as a stone
