Paper Aeroplanes placebos

all my days
summer days were gone
when I could sleep with the light on
skip to spring
and you came along
fill me up, with placebos
Til I’ve found a cure, and
can i be by you,
if I cannot be by myself and,
can I keep it pure
with all this poison in my chest and,
can i let go,
when I hang on to every breath,
with all the things I hold
hidden behind the door,
til I’ve found a cure
get my voice
in an empty jar
get my promises broken,
for far too long
and I lay my hat
but it wasn’t home
fill me up, with placebos
til I’ve found a cure, and
can i be by you,
if I cannot be by myself and,
can I keep it pure
with all this poison in my chest and,
can i let go,
when I hang on to every breath,
with all the things I hold
hidden behind the door,
til I’ve found a cure
til I’ve found a cure
til I’ve found a cure
til I’ve found a cure (can I be by you)
til I’ve found a cure (can I be by you)
til I’ve found a cure
