paper

My friends saw you with her

Then I saw the pictures

No one moves on that fast

I bet your parents love her

Reminds me of your mother

Poor girl, we both know it won’t last

You go through all the motions, say the words

But you don’t smile the same when you’re with her

She looks good on paper

And I’m a fucking mess

She’s got her shit together

I won’t lie, I’m impressed

But even though she’s beautiful and perfect

It’s only on the surface, yeah, it’s true

She looks good on paper

But I look good on you

I look good on you

You say she’s what you’re needing

I’m sorry, I don’t believe it

'Cause you still call me when you’re drunk

You go through all the motions, say the words

But you don’t smile the same when you’re with her

She looks good on paper

And I’m a fucking mess

She’s got her shit together

I won’t lie, I’m impressed

But even though she’s beautiful and perfect

It’s only on the surface, yeah, it’s true

She looks good on paper

But I look good on you

I look good on you

My friends saw you with her

Then I saw the pictures

No one moves on that fast
