Freak Owls - Paper People

There was a time when we'd welcome any smile
Open hearts, like starry nights
It's essential we depart, make a new start
From California, we'll drive until the sun sets over the mountains of misdirection
We might just leave them in the dust
Find a new way to waste away the day It's o.k. to let go when you know when to go

I know, inside, I'm old and tired
Somehow I'll let it go, see now I told you so
(Come on, let's sing
We'll be here tomorrow, it's so ordinary)
I know, inside, I more than tried
Somehow I'll let it go, see now I told you so

Take the last exit at the end of the world
Throw our notes into the fire
Find the words and write em in the dirt

Maybe someday they'll inspire
A thousand recipes to set a person free
We got so many, got so many
I'll leave behind the days uninspired
Try to write another line, take a drink and pass the time tonight
It's o.k. to let go when you know when to go

Close the door and walk away then
Who's leaving now, who's leaving now

Come on, let's sing
We'll be here tomorrow, it's so ordinary
