Paper Heart
My body has kept the score
My eyes have seen beyond the red I've been
For each that I loved a story unfolds
Couldn't keep them all to myself
I've been playing soft all this time
Swearing by my own peace of mind
But when it finds me down on the floor
I know I can't keep it all to myself
One more smile, through the fire,
Written on my paper heart
Printed paintings of my scars
Cry but try, travel light
All the lines along the way
Always reasons to stay
Failed to catch any break
Let me tell you the truth, I fear I will lose you too instead
All my friends say that I have changed
It's the shedding of that skin, well simply I don't give a damn
One more smile, through the fire,
Written on my paper heart
Printed paintings of my scars
Cry but try, travel light
All the lines along the way
Always reasons to stay
I've missed all the phone calls,
Been reliving nightmares, it's my own show
Forget about my words, no, I can't keep none
I've said too many times "learn how to breathe", oh
I've lost many friends, now
Learning how to love me, it's been hell how
Nobody felt me bleeding, just kept watching
And yet I've been forgiving, I've moved past it
One more smile, through the fire
Written on my paper heart
Printed paintings of my scars
Cry but try, travel light
All the lines along the way
Always reasons to stay
I'll keep writing on
My paper heart
My eyes have seen beyond the red I've been
For each that I loved a story unfolds
Couldn't keep them all to myself
I've been playing soft all this time
Swearing by my own peace of mind
But when it finds me down on the floor
I know I can't keep it all to myself
One more smile, through the fire,
Written on my paper heart
Printed paintings of my scars
Cry but try, travel light
All the lines along the way
Always reasons to stay
Failed to catch any break
Let me tell you the truth, I fear I will lose you too instead
All my friends say that I have changed
It's the shedding of that skin, well simply I don't give a damn
One more smile, through the fire,
Written on my paper heart
Printed paintings of my scars
Cry but try, travel light
All the lines along the way
Always reasons to stay
I've missed all the phone calls,
Been reliving nightmares, it's my own show
Forget about my words, no, I can't keep none
I've said too many times "learn how to breathe", oh
I've lost many friends, now
Learning how to love me, it's been hell how
Nobody felt me bleeding, just kept watching
And yet I've been forgiving, I've moved past it
One more smile, through the fire
Written on my paper heart
Printed paintings of my scars
Cry but try, travel light
All the lines along the way
Always reasons to stay
I'll keep writing on
My paper heart
