They sent you down a paper friend I hear
And you went back on all the vows you once held so dear
There you stretched so calm and quiet
And things looked good now dont deny it
You walked on air for fifteen minutes
And after that there was nothing in it
You dont need those paper friends at all
No you dont need those kind of friends
You say youve lost your sense of time again
Well youve been using that excuse since who knows when
You went the way of all young rebels
Ignore the gods embrace the devils
But theyre no good for you in your state
So why not drive them right out of your gates
cos you dont need those paper friends at all
You dont need those type of friends
No one knows what youre feeling
And life goes on in its own sweet time
Your passions flame for no reason
You haunt the city for something that shines
Even one thing to rhyme
And if I meet you on the rounds today
I hope you wont turn on your heel or walk away
Yes I know it takes so much effort
But facing up can be so much better
So what if dreams they all come to nothing
Just blow your nose and keep on looking
cos you dont need those paper friends at all
You dont need those kind of friends
Yes you dont need those paper friends at all
You dont need those paper friends
