Lyric discussion by MykolEmery 

Cover art for Paper Float lyrics by Cassettes Won't Listen

"As we sink with a darkened sky and we barely had time to set it right" is almost like that first line of "Affirmation" by Savage Garden. Letting the sun set upon an argument. I found that "final shot strike" to be a sort of break up, [doesn't have to be in a romantic way], but it's expected. "With no surprise", the relationship is paper strong, being wrecked by the "storm", careless decision like the captain drinking on his ship. However, they recognized that they can still "float", "crack a joke and smile", and still be with each other, happily, as "eyes squint" representing intimacy and caring as he [dies or goes to sleep]. The hands may be seperated, but the arms are still together.

Did I make the mark?
