Paper Crown lyrics

When they gave you roses And believed your wild excuses you were Sealing the deal Halfway down the road and ain't it funny how The ghosts they fade and suddenly appear You went too far Oh woman now you're feeling the fear 'Cause you've never been alone before And the wolf is at the door Now it's better if you hold your breath And don't look down At the pages of your paper crown You reached out for more And as the waves hit at the shore you felt The fading of your will Choke back the matter From the bottom of the ladder ask me If I love you still You went too far Oh woman now you're feeling the fear 'Cause you've never been alone before And the wolf is at the door And the hounds of hell they won't lie down On the ashes of your paper crown In the bright light of the sun Well you make sure everyone Could see your face You make fun of everyone who falls But meantime they were saving you a place 'Cause you've never been alone before And the wolf is at the door And the talking heads don't make a sound At the ageing of your paper crown Better if you don't look down At the pages of your paper crown
