Paperweights - The Details

Falling down always seems to me

Is easy as they said that it would be

We use our skin to cover all the broken shattered things

I’m stuck in the middle

Held down in the centre

Until it all tumbles down

I always forget which time zone you’re in

So I’m calling too early or keeping you up again

I’m walking forward

But looking back instead

I’m stuck in the middle

Held down in the centre

Until it all tumbles down

The only thing I ever see

Are the lines that keep drawing right in front of me

Its like my borders are sailing up

Around this paperweight

I’m stuck in the middle

Held down in the centre

And its all too familiar to me

Everything keeps changing

So I let go in stages

And I keep rearranging hoping that you’ll stay

But all that I’ve kept isn’t keeping you alive

Theres no easy way to say goodbye

I’m stuck in the middle

Held down in the centre

Until it all tumbles down

Ohhh

Yeah

Until it all tumbles down
