Billy Cobb The Paper Kingdom Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll build a place along the coast
With open fields and empty roads
And I'll be ready for whatever comes
A flask of wine next to the drapes
And every day will feel the same
But that's just how I like it anyway
And it won't be hard to fall asleep my dear
We'll have have no problem counting sheep

[Chorus]
Don't you forget me
When skies will fall
And no one dares to help the ones who lost it all

[Post-Chorus]
And though I may be all alone, my dear
I know your ghost will be right here

[Verse 2]
We know this happens all the time
We see the tears, we see the crying
But nobody expects it will be them
The world is full of innocents
So many lovely citizens
But that's too much for death to understand
Ooh, I'm right here next to you
Ooh, don't let me go so soon

[Chorus]
Don't you forget me
When skies will fall
And no one dares to help the ones who lost it all [Verse 3]
Monitors and memories
Flashing right in front me
And in her mind she holds the hand of God
Darkness in a room of white
The stars are not so bright tonight
I don't think I could live to see her gone

[Chorus]
Don't you forget me
When skies will fall
And no one dares to help the ones who lost it all

[Bridge]
They will corrupt you
They see right through me
They see the things that nobody else sees
They will corrupt you
They see right through me

[Outro]
If you're alright then I'm alright
Although it hurts to say goodbye
If you're alright then I'm alright (Don't you forget me)
Although it hurts to say goodbye (When skies will fall)
If you're alright then I'm alright (They will corrupt you, they see right through me)
Although it hurts to say goodbye (They see the things that nobody else sees)
