Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm on my own again
Though the sun still shines
With no point, no language, no friends
There's just the passing of time
[Verse 2]
My plans are far too big
City way too small
No one here I know by name
That would come should I call
[Verse 3]
Paper prince in a Play-Doh tower
On the outskirts of town
Everybody is looking up
But I have to look down
[Verse 4]
Old men in old cafes
By the water's edge
Playin' chess almost every day
Winning bets that were pledged
[Verse 5]
A paper prince in a Play-Doh tower
On the outskirts of town
Everybody is looking up
But I have to look down
[Verse 6]
A paper princess in a far off land
Turning love into gold
By the sink now, she washes her hands
Of the dreams that she sold
