| [00:00.80][Verse 1] |
|
| [00:01.89] |
Just like a paper tiger |
| [00:08.68] |
Torn apart by idle hands |
| [00:15.54] |
Through the helter skelter morning |
| [00:22.42] |
Fix yourself while you still can |
| [00:29.31] |
No more ashes to ashes |
| [00:36.21] |
No more cinders from the sky |
| [00:43.00] |
Let all the laws of creation |
| [00:49.54] |
Tell a dead man how to die |
| [00:56.69][Chorus] |
|
| [00:57.54] |
O deserts down below us |
| [01:04.60] |
And storms up above |
| [01:11.18] |
Like a stray dog gone defective |
| [01:18.10] |
Like a paper tiger in the sun |
| [01:24.85][Verse 2] |
|
| [01:25.14] |
Looking through a broken diamond |
| [01:31.77] |
To make the past what it should be |
| [01:38.67] |
Through the ruins and the weather |
| [01:45.68] |
Capsized boats in the sea |
| [01:52.22][Chorus] |
|
| [01:52.79] |
O deserts down below us |
| [01:59.70] |
And storms up above |
| [02:05.79] |
Like a stray dog gone defective |
| [02:12.50] |
Like a paper tiger in the sun |
| [02:25.15][Bridge] |
|
| [02:33.76] |
We're just holding on to nothing |
| [02:40.74] |
To see how long nothing lasts |
| [02:46.68][Chorus] |
|
| [02:47.29] |
O deserts down below us |
| [02:53.91] |
And storms up above |
| [03:00.49] |
Like a stray dog gone defective |
| [03:07.20] |
Like a paper tiger in the sun |
| [03:18.94] |
|
| [04:04.11][Verse 3] |
|
| [04:05.39] |
There's one road to tomorrow |
| [04:12.11] |
There's one road to the truth |
| [04:18.97] |
There's one road back to civilization |
| [04:25.64] |
But there's no road back to you |
| [04:32.62] |
