Paper Crown Lyrics

You know you´re where it´s at but you don´t know where that is, when your friends come round smiling and greet you with a kiss, Then push you in the dirt from behind. There´s no time like the right time when the now times wearing thin for their silver tinsel dresses and their microwave skin and their cheap books of romance. I think I´ll take my chances. So I run like I´d run from a flood, like you know it´s understood. That your golden hair was never meant to wear a paper crown. You know that a smile is their workaday face. You can´t calculate the effort just to keep it in its place. They don´t shoot to kill, they´d always miss, so shoot to wound. Like they´re always searching through your pockets like they expect to find a answer. The truth is that the truth is as commonplace as cancer. If you´d only take the time you don´t need to seek to find it. Just run like I´d run from a flood, like you know it´s understood. That your golden hair was never meant to wear a paper crown. (solo) Run like you´d run for good, like the rivers running blood and you see your life flashing by. I run like I´d run from a flood, like you know it´s understood. That your golden hair was never meant to wear a paper crown, a paper crown, a paper crown, a paper crown.
