​paper dreams

[Verse 1]
You said you can't keep hanging around here
With these thoughts that rot in my hair
And the kids that never go to sleep
I'll wear my favorite dress, but it will make no difference
I am not the same as when you first met me
And my eyes were still bright
And I hadn't yet begun to destroy my body

[Chorus]
Drink until you want me, tie me up and taunt me
Stay here forever just to haunt me
Stuck inside your day dream, tell your friends that I seem
To be doing better this year

[Verse 2]
There's blood stained in my singing, and ink blotted in my dream
Figures of the people I have tainted
With this maddening illusion, and constant confusion
That I can treat them well

[Chorus]
Drink until you want me, tie me up and taunt me
Stay here forever just to haunt me
I'll swear I'm feeling better
We'll fight about whether or not
I've lost my mind
