Paper Ashtray
She never tried to be
More strong than softer
It's what she had to be
A steel-willed daughter
Life wasn't easy
She took the long way
Cause trust has gotta take
At least in her case
She's just a paper ashtray
No air,, there's no flames
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
She takes a lot heat
To her, life's just that
Turn the other cheek
Or something like that
The secrets get heavy
But they're better buried
Now mystery's sister
She can't have them worried
She's just a paper ashtray
No sparks, that make flames
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
She was
Too much
Too tough
Too rough
She wasn't enough
She got too much
Heart and
Made luck
Can't you see what it made her into be
She's just a paper ashtray
No sparks that turn flames
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
More strong than softer
It's what she had to be
A steel-willed daughter
Life wasn't easy
She took the long way
Cause trust has gotta take
At least in her case
She's just a paper ashtray
No air,, there's no flames
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
She takes a lot heat
To her, life's just that
Turn the other cheek
Or something like that
The secrets get heavy
But they're better buried
Now mystery's sister
She can't have them worried
She's just a paper ashtray
No sparks, that make flames
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
She was
Too much
Too tough
Too rough
She wasn't enough
She got too much
Heart and
Made luck
Can't you see what it made her into be
She's just a paper ashtray
No sparks that turn flames
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
She don't burn
Baby
Burn, baby
She doesn't burn when she should
Baby, she don't burn
