Other Lives - Paper Cities Lyrics
We sent them all across the ocean
Many lives were taken
Well I didn't cry, I didn't know them
And I just looked on with no expression
Of friends and family
We used to know
They are all gone now
They are now gone
And for what I cannot tell
Put down your banners and flowers
This war you've made won't last
Your country, just lines on a map
They're drawn up, they don't last
The paper cities burning
The ashes fell like rain
But when the fire was over
Everything had changed
The people come together
Reminds us we're the same
Put down banners and flowers
This war you've made won't last
Your country, just lines on a map
They're' drawn up, but they don't last

I am crying so hard, so sad
I can't fucking believe how such band can be underrated. I'm in love 😍
where dissapeared come and see other lives paper city video ? .. I really like it , .. can anybody redirect me?
if you like this one, you should listen to "brett dennen ain't no reason" <3
This song should be on game of thrones.
I am in love with the melody of this song. The singer sang like a child who is tired of all division and oppression happening around him. Now he is speaking up.
On a side note, I sent this song to everyone I love friends and family telling them this song longs to be heard. I hope they do feel what I feeling, the voice of a tiresome soul.
I remember back when I was in high school, someone gave me their single at a concert as a promotion.
I've always thought this song was about world war 2.

I stumbled across this song, as it was one of those videos on the side bar. Incidents like this make me wonder how man songs are out there, unheard of, unknown. This is truly an amazing song.
Other Lives makes a lot of good songs.
The summer was amazing, it was a refreshening water in a cold cup n we drank it like never drunk before.
who is the tone-deaf "one dislike man" ?
Reminds me a little of Elefant.
literally? .__.
SHIT !!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME !!!
What a great song <3
Seans coldcut luvs u ya big baluga number1 seanimator62 fan
this band sounds a LOT ;like Alt-j
This is the most beautiful, inspirational thing I have ever heard. So, so, amazing. Thank you so much for this.
I love you
For me, Black Tables is better than this song. :)
Sounds like coldplay
A beautiful, humanist poem. A real gem of a song!
Shame that the legions of mouth-breathing zombies brainwashed by pledging allegiance to a fiction since before they even understood the words will (by design) never get it.
Preach brotha! 😎
Thank you this very really beautiful
this song is my favorite song of all time, this band is just so great :')
Oh, I don't mind. I can handle it. I'm just happy I discovered this band. :)
I can't believe I haven't heard this band until tonight. I'm so happy I could cry.
I've been waiting for 3 thousand!
FYI MrRoygbiv24, your original comment wasn't sarcastic, it was a hyperbole, aka an exaggeration. Chillax and listen to the pretty music. Don't be so angry.
lol I love the new YouTube feature that just lets you "click to view previous comment", So much easier to follow these threads =)
I always criticize most of nowadays artists and make fun of them, but every time I hear Other Lives I just shut the fuck up. This band is very very very very very very delightful!!!
Am glad I saw them live!!!
@MrRoygbiv24 What do I have to say? I have to say this: I don't give a fuck. Just enjoy the goddamn music.
@MrRoygbiv24 Well I'm not laughing.
other lives
Mr. Roy's a douche
@MrRoygbiv24 It's called sarcasm. You should try it out sometime.
super!!
wow!!!! You are really that old?
