Paper People

In a paper town,
Are paper people, 
Wearing paper masks,
Afraid of who they might be,
Until 1 day a paper girl became who she was afraid to be and the made the sacrifices along the way.

Now...

In a paper town,
Are paper people,
Wearing paper masks,
Is a real girl watching the paper people go by.
