[Verse 1]

             
  Do you ever 

       
feel like a pl

astic bag, 
            
  drifting thr

             
ough the wind 
             
  wanting to s

          
tart again? 
             
  Do you ever 

            
feel, feel so 

         
paper thin 
            
  like a house

        
 of cards,
             
  one blow fro

            
m caving in? 
             
  Do you ever 

            
feel already b

            
uried deep? 
            
 6 feet under 

             
screams but no

              
 one seems to 

        
hear a thing 
             
 Do you know t

             
hat there's st
