Paper dolls
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
lately I've been spending a lot of time
thinkin about my mistakes
and if I could rewind
some of the choices that I've made
oh, cause I've done a few things
that I am not proud of
I wish I could say that I'm sorry
but I couldn't scream it loud enough
just like paper dolls
fully capable to burn
and underneath it all
hand in hand to wait your turn
then you'll feel the flame
when it melts away your wings
just like paper dolls
now there some people
that I used to call my friends
but now they have chosen to make it their business
turn others against me and try to convince them
to envision they're in any position to judge
it's ridiculous to see that you hate me so much
and write me off so easy like I never knew you
it's ok fake bitches, cause I can write too
just like paper dolls
fully capable to burn
and underneath it all
hand in hand to wait your turn
then you'll feel the flame
when it melts away your wings
just like paper dolls
we are cut the same
I'm paper, so are you
I'm happy, saw the real you
I've moved on, why can't you?
they'll burn you too
just like paper dolls
fully capable to burn
and underneath it all
hand in hand to wait your turn
then you'll feel the flame
when it melts away your wings
just like paper dolls
we are cut the same
