Jason Wade - Paper Cuts Lyrics
I woke up today to findThis tunnel vision left me blindWith no sense of where to goThere’s Paper Cuts on both my handsFlipping through these books trying to understandI don’t, so I just go with the flowThere’s an open door with a clenched fistAnd crooked signs that I might have missedSome, somewhere along the wayAs I close my eyes I disappearTo a place in time far from hereI run, but I can’t outrun today--Chorus--There’s lightning in the skyI’m on the road ohThere’s an overwhelming urge as she explodesAll my life been waiting to arriveIt’s not the destination it’s the driveI woke up with a bloody noseAnd bruises on my feet and toesBeen kicking and screaming at the wallStrange how you feel most aliveWhen you’re broken down trying to surviveYou cry and curl up into a ballSomewhere in the solitudeSilence creeps up in front of youFor once there’s nothing to loseAs I stare into the empty spaceEverything seems to dissipateEven if I could I wouldn’t want to move--Chorus--There’s lightning in the skyI’m on the road ohThere’s an overwhelming urge as she explodesAll my life been waiting to arriveIt’s not the destination it’s the driveOh, Oh, OhWoke up today with burning earsHas it been 30 days or 30 yearsI call, get you on the phoneSaid there’s paper cuts on both your handsFlipping through these books trying to understandThis life gets stranger as we go--Chorus--There’s lightning in the skyI’m on the road, ohThere’s an overwhelming urge as she explodesAll my life been waiting to arriveIt’s not the destination it’s the driveOh, It’s the drive, Oh
