Paper Route - Real Emotion

How far can someone fall before they lose it all
How long until you see I am the criminal
They put a spell on me so I could love you right
It fought the demons back that has me up at night

How long will heavy devotion cloud my mind
Just tell me how long have you waited every single time
Go on ahead, I think you'd agree
It's real emotion killing me

For every crooked line there is a chemical
With every pill I take to try to make me whole
I'm bound to what I've sown, I am the history
I try and drink it down but it's a part of me

How long will heavy devotion cloud my mind
Just tell me how long have you waited every single time
Go on ahead, I think you'd agree
It's real emotion killing me
How long, how long
Have you been holding on
Have you been holding on and on

I see a garden and a road
Evergreen and indigo
If you wait I can be there
With miles and miles of flowers planted in a row
Love, I'm nearly halfway home
If you wait I will be there

It's real emotion
It's real emotion
It's real emotion
I need you more than ever now
All my language cast in sound
If you wait I can get there
It's anchored to my racing mind
Maybe you can slow its stride
If you wait I will get there
It's real emotion
It's real emotion killing me
