Life's a paper to the flame From the cradle to the grave It's the memories trapped inside We see anything that we want to see But all we're really hoping for Is someone will love us It's the step we make when we give and take It's loved ones gone that did nothing wrong When all they really needed was someone to listen Without conditions Life's a paper to the flame It's a crazy fools game Life's a sweet song With outlaws and angels Makes us cry but we sing along Life is a song It's a cigarette after making love It's a rainy day on your wedding day When all you really wanted was blue skies and rainbows It's a mustard stain on your baby's dress It's the flowers laid when we're laid to rest It feels like heaven is falling Life's a paper to the flame It's crazy fools game Life's a sweet song With outlaws and angels Makes us cry but we sing along We're all degenerates - working cla** Yeah, we know who we are now And the more things hurt the more they last It's the memories trapped inside We see anything that we want to be But all we're really hoping for is someone will love us Life's a sweet song With outlaws and angels Makes us cry but we sing along Life is a song (Outlaws and angels) Life is a song Life is a song (Makes us cry, makes us cry) Life is a song Life's a paper to the flame
