“Paper Hearts”

I know something you won’t share
It’s right there
I bet it would sting if I speak
It’s easy
It all seems fair
The rules for thee, but not me
You see, they promised me
I know you know they don’t care
It’s right there
Soon they’ll see you gnash your teeth
A scared beast
Cut & stab with their stares
They’re right there, to feed
The Idol bleeds
All our heroes turn to be zeros it seems
Paper hearts tear themselves apart, they’re empty
Glory fades, we find another thing to envy
You see, they promised me
Tie your ankles while you sleep
You can’t leave
Lucid dreams of what will be, they’re haunting
It all seems fair when God’s not there
It’s easy, to be, It’s all for me
All our heroes turn to be zeros it seems
Paper hearts tear themselves apart, they’re empty
Glory fades, we find another thing to envy
You see, they promised me
Oh it’s such a lovely affair
Come in, hang your soul over there
It’s nice to meet you, I couldn’t be you
Paper hearts they burn like flares
All our heroes turn to be zeros it seems
Paper hearts tear themselves apart, they’re empty
Glory fades, we find another thing to envy
You see, they promised me
