Paper Tigers

Thrice

They preach to the choir

Always in the permanent daylight

They toss paper tigers from their perfect Porcelain skylines



Listen for the sound

(For the sound, for the sound)

As it all comes crashing down

(As it all comes crashing down)



Listen for the sound

(For the sound, for the sound)

As it all comes crashing down

(As it all comes crashing down)



They preach to the choir

Always in the permanent daylight

They toss paper tigers from their perfect

Shatterproof spires



They light the world on fire

Just to watch it burn

It'll be their funeral pyre

But they never seem to learn



They light the world on fire

Just to watch it burn

It'll be their funeral pyre

But they never seem to learn



Listen for the sound

(For the sound, for the sound)

As it all comes crashing down

(As it all comes crashing down)



Listen for the sound

(For the sound, for the sound)

As it all comes crashing down

(As it all comes crashing down)



And we paid the price

We paid for their crimes with our blood

With our blood, with our blood, with our blood

Paid with our blood and our lives

With our blood and our lives

With our blood and our livee

With our blood and our lives

With our blood and our lives
