Paperhearts

I'm lettin' you go

With a smile on my face

Don't want to be alone

But no one could fill your space

Look at us

We were good together 'til it wasn't enough

Couldn't stay like this forever?

Paperhearts, lightweight and quite breakable

Paper cuts, open wounds and vulnerable

I'm lettin' you go

With a smile on my face

Don't want to be alone

But no one could fill your space

I don't blame you for not wantin' to stay

In the long run, it might be better that way

I'm lettin' you go

With a smile on my face

Paperhearts are built that way

No one's at fault

I'm just a little too broken to be someone's love

I'm good at feelin', bad at copin'

We're different

But on the same page when it comes to innocence

No one did the other wrong

I'm lettin' you go

With a smile on my face

Don't want to be alone

But no one could fill your space

I don't blame you for not wantin' to stay

In the long run, it might be better that way

I'm lettin' you go

With a smile on my face

Paperhearts are built that way

We tried to sneak around the finish line

One foot out the door, but half of me is still inside

Now I turn into a souvenir box

Will you dust me off?

We tried to sneak around the finish line

We survived the war, but it somehow feels like we died

Now I turn into a souvenir box

Will you dust me off?

I'm lettin' you go (We tried to sneak around)

With a smile on my face (One foot out the door, but half of me is still inside)

Don't want to be alone

But no one could fill your space

I don't blame you for not wantin' to stay

In the long run, it might be better that way

I'm lettin' you go

With a smile on my face

Paperhearts are built that way
