Song language: English
The Sober Scent of Paper |
| Chains stretch the great lake around you |
| Pull you along by the knots in your hair |
| It’s just like you’d never been there |
| Cold tooth and ice scattered islands |
| Faithfully facing the warmth of the sun |
| All to the quickening dawn |
| Fever on the thorough-way brow |
| The sober scent of paper |
| Teething cries in what the rain hides |
| Where not enough to save you |
| Faith is a race from the silence |
| Widens and swallows you |
| Head first and whole |
| Fight through the whitening bones |
| Secede while you can while you’re able |
| Sorrow may tap at the root of your song |
| Light sparks the opening bomb |
| Fever on the thorough-way brow |
| The sober scent of paper |
| Teething cries in what the rain hides |
| Where not enough to save you |
| Every ache is dissolved in the brine |
| And the waves from the bay and then rise |
| But the shark ridden garden will run dry again |
