Papercuts

[Verse 1]
I keep getting sick of the sound of my own voice
I'm so through
Almost changed every part of myself like I had the choice
'Cause of you
I'm trying to give up on perfect
It's just another lie I'm unlearning
I know I'm just a work in progress
Trying to believe I'm worth it now
Try to lay this burden down

[Chorus]
Because all you ever gave me was paper cuts
And all I wanted to feel was good enough
You tried to hollow out my soul
And drop poison in my blood
But all you ever gave me was paper cuts
Paper cuts

[Verse 2]
It started out with fun, but I should have known where it ends
Such a fool
'Cause nothing good comes from chemical confidence
You just lose
'Cause I was on a downward spiral
Had to get out for my own survival
And when a part of me felt worthless
You told me only you could save me now
Trying to drown those voices out

[Chorus]
Because all you ever gave me was paper cuts
And all I wanted to feel was good enough
You tried to hollow out my soul
And drop poison in my blood
But all you ever gave me was paper cuts
Paper cuts
Paper cuts

All you ever gave me was paper cuts
And all I wanted to feel was good enough
You tried to hollow out my soul
And drop poison in my blood
But all you ever gave me was paper cuts
Paper cuts
Paper cuts
