Paper Boats

Lyrics

Sit on a train, reading a book
 Same damn planet every time I look
 Try to relax and slow my heartbeat
 Only works when I'm dead asleep
 Been thinking and drinking all over the town
 Must be gearing up for some kind of meltdown
 All I am is a body floating downwind
 All I am is a body floating downwind
 What's wrong?
 Nothing
 Are you sure nothing's wrong?
 Yeah
 But you're sad about something?
 Yeah
 So tell me what
 I don't know
 I can't tell you
 I can't tell you
 I can't tell you
 I can't tell you
 All I am is a body floating downwind
 All I am is a body floating downwind
 Sit on a train, reading a book
 Same damn planet every time I look
 Try to relax and slow my heartbeat
 Only works when I'm dead asleep
 Been thinking and drinking all over the town
 Must be gearing up for some kind of meltdown
 As the express train passes the local
 It moves by just like a paper boat
 Although it weighs a million pounds
 I swear it almost seems to float
 And as we pass by each other
 Our heads all full of bother
 We can't look, we can't stop
 We can't think, we can't stop
 Because we're stuck in our own paths
 And it's the way it always lasts
 And I need something more from you
 All I am is a body floating downwind
 All I am is a body floating downwind
 Floating downwind
