The Gaslight Anthem - Stray Paper lyrics
[The Gaslight Anthem - Stray Paper lyrics]
All the things I've seen
From high above this haunted city
Under elected thrones of thieves
Where mighty men lay down their hearts
In the service of their queens
And gave their bodies to be burned
Like I did before your feet
Like she always tried for me
Like now she does for me
And underneath the tyranny of
August and her sons
Who sent fire from their fingertips
In the holy vow of a teenage kiss
Now we're much too old for this
I don't feel those kinds of things
So don't you cry for me
I used to feel everything
Oh but love (run, run, run) oh but love
Oh but love love, love, love becomes
Love, love, love becomes
Love, love, love becomes
Love, love, love becomes
And all my love becomesall my love, my love
Became blood on stray paper
Became blood on stray paper
Became blood on stray paper
Became blood on stray paper
Became blood on stray paper
Became blood on stray paper
Became blood on stray paper
