lyrics

Your words burnt in my atmosphere, I’m growing old and getting out of here but I’m still someone
I can’t waste my time on myths and lies, I'm bullshit proof, so take some advice, you’re not the chosen one
Maybe scientists can’t take your pain, if you’re waiting for the golden flame of the Holy one
You don't even want to see the light, electiciy or candlelight
Cause you’re lying, trying, crying , dying

(When you started feeling lonely) Time to slay the minor mistake
(Every mystery turned holy ) Strip away minor decay
(A paper dragon chief devotee) Overplay the key of K
It’s my mistake, love can’t wait, no destination through that gate

A life rejecting logics fumes, don’t let their mistakes be exhumed, it's only just begun
And if you can’t afford to be that weak, just burn that money in the street, don’t think it can’t be done
No nothing matters if I’m wrong, & no punishment awaits me if I’m a phoney one
& if after your saintly demise when you’re just another wasted life
There’s no crying, lying, trying or dying

(When you started feeling lonely) Time to slay the minor mistake
(Every mystery turned holy ) Slide away minor decay
(A paper dragon chief devotee) Overplay the key of K
Make no mistake, it’s love and hate, our power, beauty incarnate

I….we’re the lonely ones
I….I’m a lonely one
I….we’re the lonely ones ohhh
I…. I…. I…. I….
yeah I’m crying, trying, dying, lying

(When you started feeling lonely) Time to slay the minor mistake
(Every mystery turned holy ) Strip away minor decay
(A paper dragon chief devotee) Overplay the key of K
It’s my mistake, love can’t wait, no destination through that gate
(When you started feeling lonely)
(Every mystery turned holy )
(A paper dragon chief devotee)
Make no mistake, it’s love and hate, our power, beauty incarnate
