8. Paper Tiger (3:56)
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
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
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
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
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
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
