Paper Cups

Where did I leave it
 That look in your eye
 Tattooed the memory
 To the back of my mind
 Back of my mind
 Something elusive
 Cannot pin down
 Like a gentle breeze a tidal wave
 You got me anyway, anyhow
 Call it what you want (all in my head)
 Tell me things too loud to hear
 Collect all my words in paper cups
 And fill me up (fill me back up)
 Sipping on your sympathy and
 Pouring out my heart in paper cups
 Hand me a lighter
 I'm in the dark
 Everything's perfect
 Falling apart, falling apart
 Louder and louder
 The waves in my ears
 All the blood pounding an endless beat
 'Til the purpose disappears
 Call it what you want (all in my head)
 Tell me things too loud to hear
 Collect all my words in paper cups
 And fill me up (fill me back up)
 Sipping on your sympathy and
 Pouring out my heart in paper cups
 Cut through the chaos
 Cut through the noise
 Cut to the feeling
 Choking my voice
 Colour it in
 Gave it a name
 Found the centre
 Of the sound again
