Paper and Quill Songtext
von Seven Storey Mountain

The people ride the broken train
And disembark to find we′re still here
Trying to go far
That's how we are
It′s just how we are

The runaway is running fast
And running where he can't ever get
Trying to be sparse
And ending up dense
And making no sense


But I won't forget
As I try not to remember
What I don′t get
Someone sure will
With paper and quill

Hammers thrown around the world
But the nails they lay in a pile
Trying to be smart
I call it denial
We die single file

But I won′t forget
As I try not to remember
What I don't get
Someone sure will
With paper and quill
With paper and quill
