Paper Cuts

I could be careless and you couldn't care less at all

You're kissing me like a ritual and killing me soft

Head on a mattress, I'm trying to take back control

My brain's an emotional picture, I can't turn it off

The pleasure's all mine

I'll go numb next time

Why does it hurt so much every time we touch? You givin' me paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Under the surface feels like it just won't heal from all of the paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

I can cover a scar, yeah, I'm keeping it cool

'Cause the thicker the skin, the darker the blue

Why does it hurt so much every time we touch? You givin' me paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Scenes from the weekend, we're dressed for the big tent affair

You fill me with new party favors, high up in the air

I'm Mr. November, you know I should be fearless by now

You take me a little too serious, fighting unfair

The pleasure's all mine

I'll go numb next time

Why does it hurt so much every time we touch? You givin' me paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Under the surface feels like it just won't heal from all of the paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

I can cover a scar, yeah, I'm keeping it cool

'Cause the thicker the skin, the darker the blue

Why does it hurt so much every time we touch? You givin' me paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Paper cuts, paper cuts, paper cuts

Why does it hurt so much every time we touch? You givin' me paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Under the surface feels like it just won't heal from all of the paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

I can cover a scar, yeah, I'm keeping it cool

'Cause the thicker the skin, the darker the blue

Why does it hurt so much every time we touch? You givin' me paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts

Cover me up, cover me up, cover me up, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cover me up, cover me up, cover me up, yeah, yeah, yeah

Cover me up, cover me up, cover me up, yeah, yeah, paper cuts

Ooh, paper cuts
