Paper Trees of War

Verse 1

Lead pellets pluck at the paper trees

Forest of iron lungs

Waiting for the sky to cough

Iron rain washing out the path

Pre-Chorus

Still we crawl

Still we march

Still we wait

Chorus

Circle of biting wire

Cutting the clock face thin

The front moves an inch then back

Endless red ribbon ritual

Endless red ribbon ritual

Verse 2

Black powder bloomed inside your throat

Smoke snakes crawling south

Counting teeth in the mud

Bitter biting blades of salt

Pre-Chorus

Still we crawl

Still we march

Still we wait

Chorus

Circle of biting wire

Cutting the clock face thin

The front moves an inch then back

Endless red ribbon ritual

Endless red ribbon ritual

Guitar Solo

Bridge

Under the rust

Under the bone

Under the dirt

No one goes home

No one goes home

Chorus

Circle of biting wire

Cutting the clock face thin

The front moves an inch then back

Endless red ribbon ritual

Endless red ribbon ritual
