Paper Houses
Its like I’m learning to walk
All over again
Its like I’ll fall with no one
To help
I don’t wanna grow up
Don’t wanna start again
Feels like a cloud burst
Over my head
Hm
We’re living in paper houses
Tearing down in the rain
When the sky falls apart
Will the world still be searching for love
Isn’t it heavy?
Isn’t it lonely?
To be dreaming in the dark
To be dreaming in the dark
Please take the ghosts
Away from me
I can’t take being haunted
Anymore
I don’t wanna be me
Don’t wanna be them at all
Feels like I’m wrong cuz they
Understand the world
Hm
I’ve been dancing on broken glass
I dont know when its gonna crack
I don’t wanna be buried deep
With head stone covered in leaves
I wanna be found when the world comes
Looking for me
We’re living in paper houses
Tearing down in the rain
When the sky falls apart
Will the world still be searching for love
It is heavy
It is lonely
To be dreaming in the dark
Cuz I’m dreaming in the dark
