Second Person – Paper Umbrella Lyrics

Hip Hop/Rap

You're alone
You're afloat in an angry tide
Does it feel like home
Or does it feel like suicide?
You're so sharp
That you cut yourself sometimes
And your devices go to waste
Cause they're running around with your design

You feel as useless as a paper umbrella in a storm
It's funny how the weather can go wrong
And you're without your outer shell
I just want to know if I can help
Or can anything be done

Your head's so heavy
Let's get the weight from off of your chest
Come on baby
Don't fear the people you know best
You're a soldier now (you're a solider now)
And you're going off to war (and you're going off to war)
What are you crying for?

You feel as useless as a paper umbrella in a storm
It's funny how the weather can go wrong
And you're without your outer shell
And I just want to know if I can help
Baby, I just want to know if I can help
I would do for you
Whatever could, whatever could be done

Oh, all I can do is look at you retreating to the skies
Oh, nothing grounds you now
You haven't got the anchor off your alibi

All I can say is
Suns will set and rise again
But I will do for you
Whatever can be done

Your head's so heavy
Let's get the weight from off of your chest
Come on, baby, don't fear the people you love best
