Paper
Paper cuts and paper rings
Paper kites give paper wings
Very flimsy fall apart
Bleeding bleeding like my heart
Drops of moisture soak the paper
Dying in an elevator
Paper money and a paper hat
Paper swan, paper hat
Cat that scratches at my scars
Makes me think I'm seeing stars
Hoping for a miracle
Pray he won't be tyrannical
Paper new and paper books
Paper girls, paper look
Certainly fragile as can be
Do they always look right through me?
See that smile,
Fall apart
Dying from a lonely heart
Paper promise from a paper beau
Flys away when the wind doth blow
I find that its my time to go
Paper confessions from a paper girl
Living in a paper world
One thats heavy,
Hard to bear,
And can at anytime,
Tear
Paper strife
Paper knife
Take me from this paper life
My paper heart is torn to shreds
I no longer fill those lovely heads
Paper bruises
Paper screw
When is the paper due?
It contains some awful news,
About a paper girl
With a paper heart
Who quite simply,
Fell apart.
