Perfect on Paper
Am I undeserving
Of your constant respect
I didn't really want to bring it up again
I'm not the type to beg for validation
And that's whats so frustrating
I hate it now
How did we even get this far?
How did I let myself fall this hard?
All the time I
Become the giver every time I do this
Let someone take it all away and use it
Somehow I thought it would be different
Next time around
Thinking I'd found
What seemed
Perfect on paper
What a creation
Worth the paper cuts
Perfect on paper
But I'm ashamed that
You went and broke my paper heart
Now is it me
Is it everything I had to ask for
Is it me
Is it that I'm not what you dreamt of
Always hurt so bad
Cuz you could never answer
Like what you so ashamed of
Acknowledging we not the same
Been a while since it's been this way
Ain't nothing you or I could change
Do we go or stay, do we go or stay
Did I ever fit in your lane
Were you caught up in memories
In love with the picture I framed
Is this fair to say
Your love was temporary
How did we even get this far
How did I let myself fall this hard
All the time I
Become the giver every time I do this
Let someone take it all away and use it
Somehow I thought it would be different
Next time around
Thinking I'd found
What seemed
Perfect on paper
What a creation
Worth the paper cuts
Perfect on paper
But I'm ashamed that
You went and broke my paper heart
Of your constant respect
I didn't really want to bring it up again
I'm not the type to beg for validation
And that's whats so frustrating
I hate it now
How did we even get this far?
How did I let myself fall this hard?
All the time I
Become the giver every time I do this
Let someone take it all away and use it
Somehow I thought it would be different
Next time around
Thinking I'd found
What seemed
Perfect on paper
What a creation
Worth the paper cuts
Perfect on paper
But I'm ashamed that
You went and broke my paper heart
Now is it me
Is it everything I had to ask for
Is it me
Is it that I'm not what you dreamt of
Always hurt so bad
Cuz you could never answer
Like what you so ashamed of
Acknowledging we not the same
Been a while since it's been this way
Ain't nothing you or I could change
Do we go or stay, do we go or stay
Did I ever fit in your lane
Were you caught up in memories
In love with the picture I framed

How did we even get this far
How did I let myself fall this hard
All the time I
Become the giver every time I do this
Let someone take it all away and use it
Somehow I thought it would be different
Next time around
Thinking I'd found
What seemed
Perfect on paper
What a creation
Worth the paper cuts
Perfect on paper
But I'm ashamed that
You went and broke my paper heart
