Paper Nihilist Lyrics


Watsky Paper Nihilist

[Chorus]
You say that you believe that
That nothing matters
I see the logic
But do you feel it in your heart tonight?
What do you feel, feel, feel?
(Paper Nihilist)

[Verse 1]
On some level are we all a single entity? (I don't know)
Swirling in the ball of universal energy? (I don't know)
But they'll hack em when I dwell on my stupid stuff
I get stuck and I just come undone mentally
Silly little petty human brain but my petty pain
Really tryna' shackle me with vain
Mental menthol chains
While I hold this lucky ticket man
How could I complain?
Yet I'm here again up in my head
Going up in flames
But I gotta chill
And scissor kick my inner critic
Lift us over the pacific
In a floating Honda Civic
Get untethered from invented
Pressure heavy as a feather
Whether trekking through a blizzard
In the middle of the desert
In my soul

Living is the goal
Loving is the way
Suffering's the toll
We all gotta pay
If we wanna roll
While we got the day day day, you say

[Chorus]
That you believe that
That nothing matters
I see the logic
But do you feel it in your heart tonight?
What do you feel, feel, feel?

[Verse 2]
Do you look at life and think 'that's it?' (I don't know)
That humanity's a big trash pit? (I don't know)
That we're actors in a big basket?
Do the cold facts fit?
Now I don't know jack-shit
But you got the right to feel
(What you're f..ckin' feeling)
I'm a pleb and I
(Don't know what to feel)
I believe we should (Make those f..ckers squeal)
Try (Spin the lucky wheel)
Try (Yes I wanna feel)
Dammit we're all stranded on this big old ball of granite
But I'm singing while I'm hanging out the window of the planet
Yeah I'm damaged but I am
And so you could put this ham up on a sandwich
If you're famished you could fight me till we vanish
Cus'

If it doesn't matter either way
Why not go and have some fun today?
(You say that you believe that)
If it doesn't matter either way
(You say that you believe that)
Why not go and have some fun fun fun?

[Chorus]
You say that you believe that
That nothing matters
I see the logic
But do you feel it in your heart tonight?
What do you feel deep in your heart?

Paper Nihilist
Paper Nihilist
Paper Nihilist

Do you feel it in your heart tonight?
Do you feel it in your heart tonight?
Do you feel it in your heart tonight?
What do you feel, feel, feel, feel, feel?
