"Paper Tiger" lyrics - ARCH ENEMY
[Intro:]
See no, hear no
Speak no evil
We are each our own devil
And we make this world our hell
Nothing burns like a memory
The kind you want to forget
But the hooks are in too deep
And your body won't let you repent
Inside you cry out for mercy
A tug-of-war in your chest
A lead feather, a loose chain
A paper tiger in the rain
[Pre-Chorus:]
Oh no
Oh no
Here it comes again
[Chorus:]
Oh, the whisper in your ear
The ideas that give life to shadows
I am the devil you know
Eyes up, look forward
Another mountain to climb
Gravity feels stronger
Under the weight of night
[Pre-Chorus:]
Oh no
Oh no
Here it comes again
[Chorus:]
Oh, the whisper in your ear
The ideas that give life to shadows
I am the devil you know
[Bridge:]
I am poison
I am pain
I am effigy
I am the devil you know
[Guitar solo]
[Reprise]
See no, hear no
Speak no evil
You have danced with the devil
But you took each step alone
[Outro:]
Oh, the whisper in your ear
The ideas that give life to shadows
I am the devil you know
Time to let go
