Paper And Ink Lyrics


Tracy Chapman Paper And Ink


Touched the mirror Broke the surface of the water Saw my true self All illusions shattered

Money's only paper only ink We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree How the world turns Who made the sun Who owns the sea The world we know will fall piece by piece

Sat down up close to the colored black hole Like they'd always told me not to Saw the one dimension polka dot pacifier And all illusions shattered

Money's only paper only ink We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree How the world turns Who made the sun Who owns the sea The world we know will fall piece by piece

Bared myself wholly heart and body unadorned Stripped down solely To the evil and the good Felt no shame Naked to the world And all illusions shattered

Money's only paper only ink We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree How the world turns Who made the sun Who owns the sea The world we know will fall piece by piece

Faced towards the sea Looked to heaven up above Felt the world revolve around me No one could tell me otherwise But the turbulent waters won't reflect this life Only the sun the moon and sky And all illusions shattered

Money's only paper only ink We'll destroy ourselves if we can't agree How the world turns Who made the sun Who owns the sea The world we know will fall piece by piece

Money's only paper only ink
