Paper Man
When all this was new to me
And your love was news to me too
I creased up, I folded
I took on the imprint of you
Did not predict a time I would be whiter than snow
Oh, don't wanna be a
Paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Crossed out corrected
Does the best he can
You leaned in and told me
That 180 Grammes you'd allow
I said, forget the weight of me
Look at the state of me now
Pumped up on vitamins
White noise and calcium too
You don't want a
Paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Crossed out corrected
Does the best he can
What does it mean to count on yourself
And wait for the day to come
The day's too long
Don't wanna be a paper man
Paper man
Don't wanna be a paper man
Paper man
Paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Crossed out corrected
Does the best he can
Don't wanna be a paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Footnote to history
Does the best he can
I felt the rain but I thinned out
To filter it through
And your love was news to me too
I creased up, I folded
I took on the imprint of you
Did not predict a time I would be whiter than snow
Oh, don't wanna be a
Paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Crossed out corrected
Does the best he can
You leaned in and told me
That 180 Grammes you'd allow
I said, forget the weight of me
Look at the state of me now
Pumped up on vitamins
White noise and calcium too
You don't want a
Paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Crossed out corrected
Does the best he can
What does it mean to count on yourself
And wait for the day to come
The day's too long
Don't wanna be a paper man
Paper man
Don't wanna be a paper man
Paper man
Paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Crossed out corrected
Does the best he can
Don't wanna be a paper man
Drawn in the margins of a bigger plan
A little slip of paper man
Footnote to history
Does the best he can
I felt the rain but I thinned out
To filter it through
