Lyrics:

Nail my bones to this bar

Cuz I won’t be selling out

Pour one out for the shark

My love

What have I done

Take me to the ending

Where the nihilists save face

I didn’t get dressed up for nothing

Buffalo Blades

You know I gotta

I’ve got to die a few times

Before I live, before I live

I’ve gotta let the demons win

To live

Hide my soul in the car

Cuz my body won’t be long

Rorschach stains from my nose

My nose

Should’ve stayed at home

Take me to the ending

Where the trophies are for me

I didn’t get fucked up for nothing

Buffalo Blades

You know I’ve gotta

I’ve got to die a few times

Before I live, before I live

I’ve gotta let the demons win

To live

You know I’ve gotta

I’ve got to die a few times

Before I live, before I live

I’ve gotta let the demons win

To live

Take me to the ending 

Where I throw away my keys

I’ve got to die a few times

Before I live, before I live again

I’ve gotta let the demons win

To live

Shangri-blah

Buffalo Blades

Little Highways

OH MY GOD

On The Edge

Dance Called Memory

I'm Not Ready for the Change

Paper Skies drifts between tender pop ballads and shimmering indie pop anthems, blending heartfelt storytelling with melodies that linger long after the song ends. 🌅✨ Soft piano lines meet glowing synth textures and warm guitars, creating a soundtrack for love, loss, and everything in between.

The album captures the fragile beauty of fleeting moments — like clouds passing overhead — with both uplifting choruses and intimate ballads that tug at the heart. A perfect balance of dreamy atmosphere and emotional depth. 💙
