Paper And Ink Lyrics by Tracy Chapman

Paper And Ink Lyrics

    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
