Courrier - Paper Ghost lyrics

Today I would learn The art of leaving earth The calculus of sin And salvation The war I waged with d**h Tas far above my head The winds of Heaven met The gates of Hell The angels sang eternally While the demons were encouraging All that was inside of me To give up hope This is how it feels This is how it feels You were standing there Running a brush through your blonde hair Unconcerned with the affair Because you had faith But I wish it came so easily To a boy afraid of everything But this felt like an awakening It felt so free This is how it feels This is how it feels This is how it feels, this is how it feels When the hourgla** drained, I swear my world was shuttering When the hourgla** drained, I swear I felt the summer rain When the hourgla** drained, I swear it was my wedding day When the hourgla** drained, I found what I'd been missing For thy mortal self shall die But from the grave we will arise And d**h will be described as a Paper ghost
