Paperlate, paperlate
Paperlate
Ooh, I'm sorry, but there is no one on the line
Paperlate
Ooh, I'm sorry but rest easy, no news is good news
Ooh, it's too easy to live like clockwork
Tick-tock, watching the world go by
Any change would take too long
So dry your eyes
Ooh, it's too easy to live in a cold sweat
Just sitting dripping in pools below
You can wipe your face, kill the pain
But the fever won't go, no, no
Paperlate
Pull it together now
Put your feet back on the ground
Paperlate
Ooh, don't worry now
You're not alone
Look around you
Paperlate
Ooh, I'm sorry, but there's no one on the line
Paperlate
Ooh, I'm sorry but rest easy, no news is good news
Ooh, it's too easy to compute your future
Taking no risks and playing too safe
Any change would take too long
So dry your eyes
Ooh, it's too easy to talk about rocking the boat
Making changes and changing track
But you'd better not lock that door
'Cause you'll be coming back
Ah, you're breathing faster
Silence the only sound
There's no need to be nice on the way up
'Cause you're not coming down
Paperlate, paperlate
Paperlate, paperlate
Paperlate, paperlate
Paperlate, paperlate
Paperlate
Ooh, I'm sorry, but there's no one on the line
Paperlate
Ooh, I'm sorry but rest easy, no news is good news
Paperlate
No, I'm sorry, but there's no one on the line
