Lyrics
Verse 1:
I tried breaking away this paper mache that's, keeping me alone.
And the harder my days get the changing of faces, feeling far from home.
Keeping it together, even though, we should stay apart.
Tearing up your letters, past the imperfections...
Chorus:
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
Verse 2:
I don't wanna believe it, I can't really see it, any other way.
And if we can't agree that we need to leave it, there's nothing more to say.
Keeping it together, even though, we should stay apart.
Tearing up your letters, past the imperfections...
Chorus:
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
Bridge:
Don't know why you treated me so cold, your silly little games are getting old.
So I'm throwing away all your letters.
I'm throwing away all your letters.
We can no longer be together, but you will always be...
Chorus:
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
In My Paper Heart...
