Paper Tiger

See no, hear no Speak no evil We are each our own devil And we make this world our hell Nothing burns like a memory The kind you want to forget But the hooks are in too deep And your body won't let you repent Inside you cry out for mercy A tug-of-war in your chest A lead feather, a loose chain A paper tiger in the rain Oh no Oh no Here it comes again Oh, the whisper in your ear The ideas that give life to shadows I am the devil you know Eyes up, look forward Another mountain to climb Gravity feels stronger Under the weight of night Oh no Oh no Here it comes again Oh, the whisper in your ear The ideas that give life to shadows I am the devil you know I am poison I am pain I am effigy I am the devil you know See no, hear no Speak no evil You have danced with the devil But you took each step alone Oh, the whisper in your ear The ideas that give life to shadows I am the devil you know Time to let go
