Paper Street Video (MV)

In my party days I used to snort cocaine
And that hit would go right to my brain
And mix with chemicals like dopamine
And Alcohol and ketamine
And i was king of the world if you know what that means

Too much sex, rock, drugs and violence
Now I'm in the back of an ambulance
Here's what happens if you leave it all up to chance
You could have a near life experience

All my friends, they called me a psychopath
But I was having more fun than they would have
They better take me out cuz they won't take me back
Everything you add you know I'll just subtract
I see the pain I cause, it just make me laugh

Too much sex, rock, drugs and violence
Now I'm in the back of an ambulance
Here's what happens if you leave it all up to chance
You could have a near life experience

I am
King of this paper street
It's holding place for my empty dreams
But it don't exist it's a fantasy
The place where madness and boredom meet

Now I am just and old pervert
Yeah a sickly cynical introvert
So society and the psych ward team
Can diagnose what's really wrong with me
Yeah I am king of the world I think you know what that means

Am
King of this paper street
It's holding place for my empty dreams
But it don't exist it's a fantasy
The place where madness and boredom meet

Too much sex, rock, drugs and violence
Now I'm in the back of an ambulance
Here's what happens if you leave it all up to chance
You could have a near life experience
10.
Cliche 03:20
You came to me one summer night
A little crush got out of line
And for these past few weeks
I feel like I'm living for the first time

Well all I want are sweet cliche's
Get in the car we'll drive someplace
With the windows down and the music loud
And your hand on my knee

If you fall asleep at night
And I can't be right by your side
I hope you can hear this song
And never feel alone

You said that you'd take care of me
Wanna go sailing and buy me things
And as we sweat between the sheets
In your house

Happiness is so fragile
And I know these feelings come and go
But you could be the one
I just thought I'd let you know

I press my face into your shirt
And try to put thoughts into words
But I can only think of three
That will really work

It's beautiful it's horrible
I'm at the door don't let me go
Just stay with me a little more
Before you take me home

If you fall asleep at night
And I can't be right by your side
I hope you can hear this song
And never, oh never feel alone

It's beautiful, it's horrible
If you want me now then please say so
Love can be so fleeting
But it feels so meaningful
