Paper Chase Songtext
von Static Cycle

Face is cold, filled with envy.
He′s got it all, he's left empty.
Sold his soul, unsuspecting
He′d lose his world, now he's perfecting
His own song, his sweet medley
Every verse, is resurrecting
What he's made, an early grave
He′s all alone on this paper chase.

All we find is emptiness,
Oh yes, we′re focused on this paper chase.
And so, we ask, what comes next,
Oh yes, we'll stop this race, this paper chase.


Can′t stop sweating, it's relentless
His mistakes, can′t forget this
Leaves him nauseous, he's grown lawless
If he could, he′d take back all this
Weighted pockets, tall corner office
His plan, it was flawless.
Now he bleeds, this disease
It grows on trees, only cost his dreams

All we find is emptiness,
Oh yes, we're focused on this paper chase
And so, we ask, what comes next,
Oh yes, we'll stop this race, this paper chase.
(Paper chase)

Go on and chase
Go on, go
Go on and chase
Go on and chase...

All we find is emptiness,
Oh yes, we′re focused on this paper chase
And so, we ask, what comes next,
Oh yes, we′ll stop this race, this paper...

What if we could start again,
Maybe we could save ourselves
We'll change the way we dream,
We′ll burn this paper trail.


What if we could start again,
Maybe we could save ourselves
We'll change the way we dream,
We′ll burn this paper trail.
