"paper moons" lyrics
"paper moons"
Underneath a paper moon
Thinking about a life with you
The flickers in and out of frame
I can't ever make it look the same
You went out again last night
We never win because you don't fight
There's nothing I can do from here
'Cept pour myself another beer
Who am I to stand in your way?
If you want to lose yourself I don't know what to say
You keep on asking me to save you but it never works
I don't know why you're so committed to your pain
Another flat, another line to numb the worst
You are at it again
I know it's nice to get away
Turn the past to ash and skip a day
The colours are too bright for you
But when you slip up, I'm breaking too
Slipping under next to you
Is that what you need me to do?
I don't wanna think no more
I'm not your father, not your cure
Who am I to stand in your way?
If you want to lose yourself I don't know what to say
You keep on asking me to save you but it never works
I don't know why you're so committed to your pain
Another flat, another line to numb the worst
You are at it again
You gotta stop
Giving yourself to them
You gotta stop
I wish you would stop
You gotta stop
Giving yourself to them
You gotta stop
I wish you would stop
But who am I to stand in your way?
If you want to lose yourself I don't know what to say
You keep on asking me to save you but it never works
I don't know why you're so committed to your pain
Another flat, another line to numb the worst
You are at it again

Colouring - "Time" Time it takes to break my heart if only I could figure out
Time it takes to make your mark on the man that's running out
I wish I could've turn the clocks around
But the weight of the world is...
Oh Wonder - "Better Now" You've been through it all
And I'll wait for the call just to know
If you're better now
22 hours, pacing the room
Praying for you, hot cup of coffee
They said you're sleeping, no news is good...
Charlotte OC - "Freedom" Just before you sleep
It starts you feel like you're falling
This way we meet
The darkness, darkness is calling
Under the sheets
There's where your dreams start revealing
What's underneath?
There's...
The Aces - "Lost Angeles" Driving on Sunset
Everything's perfect
But I think that we missed
That turn 'bout a mile ago
So cinematic
Over-dramatic
But I think that we lost ourselves
A while ago
This used to be romantic
But...
Zella Day - "My Game" I want you mean, like a disco fever
Sound of your heart tells me you're a believer
Hot like the sun in the middle of winter
Burning with love, maybe you're the receiver
If it gets too hot, you're...
