Paper Alibis

I know I can't conceal, I know that its an ordeal
You found out all my moves that I can't disprove

I see that you do try, I see reasons why you cry
I see creases in your heart, as they rip apart

Now I'm drunk on adhesives
Trying to cover up stigma of mine
But nothing sticks and nothing stays
As you poke holes in my tale

Please forgive my leaking eyes
Please don't spoil my paradise
Holding on to hope, shattered by
The one who broke my love

And I'm crafting paper alibis
'Cause I'm too weak for real goodbyes
Waiting to be torn in two
'Cause I could not tell the truth

You know I can't forget the fact you can't accept
The people I adored the promises we sworn

Can't you see I do try and the reasons why I cry
These petty papercuts
Don't turn them to a flood

Now I'm drunk on adhesives
Trying to cover up stigma of mine
But nothing sticks and nothing stays
As you poke holes in my tale

I can't stand reality
You can't stop this agony
Drowning in the dissonance by
The one who crushed our fate

In this life folded with tragedies
We crave for more apologies
Wishes, they all start to rust
Our feelings burn to dust

Please forgive my leaking eyes
Please don't spoil my paradise
Holding on to hope shattered
By the one who broke my love

And I'm crafting paper alibis
'Cause I'm too weak for real goodbyes
Waitin' to be torn in two
'Cause I could not tell the truth
