Up above the distant deadlines Climb the rolling mountain tide I caught a glimpse of higher towers Way beyond the other side Should have known I'd get distracted And live each day for its own sake Drunken shamble evening, I'm so dead The morning stars evaporate I spent all my wages So tie me down with paper cords It could have been amazing, maybe But I just got bored Holding on To paper swords I've got friends who nearly love me And in her arms I feel so warm She'll never leave and I won't need to change Cos in her arms I feel unborn I spent all our wages And now we've nothing left to hoard It could have been amazing, maybe But I just got bored Holding on, on, on I'm gonna find a place of safety Gonna save all my rewards Cos I just get bored I just get bored Waving my paper sword I just get bored I just get bored Playing my paper chord Tie me down, tie me down, tie me down
