Paper Thin

Paper thin

Tearing at the seams

Paper thin

Nothing’s what it seems

Paper thin

Watch it all burn down

You lit the flame yourself

Now it’s taking your crown

Everything is perfect till one thing don’t go your way

Then the smile starts slipping and the whole damn room gets blamed

Minor inconvenience turns into another war

Then you save that pretty face for when you walk outside the door

Nobody sees the venom, nobody sees the spite

How you tear apart the people who can see behind the lie

You don’t fear being hated, that ain’t what cuts you deep

You fear somebody finding out how paper-thin you really be

Paper thin

Ego

Paper thin

Crown

You lit your own fire

Now watch it burn down

Paper thin

Throne

Paper thin

Pride

You kept feeding the flame

Now it’s starting to claim

Rip apart the witness

Tell yourself they’re wrong

But tearing up the mirror

Doesn’t change what it saw

Paper thin

Tearing at the seams

Paper thin

Nothing’s what it seems

Paper thin

Watch it all burn down

You lit the flame yourself

Now it’s taking your crown

Every question felt like judgment, every truth became attack

Anyone who saw the cracks got a target on their back

So you twist another story, make the victim look like you

Turn against the ones who got too close and saw the fucking truth

Every compliment was tape across another splitting seam

Every stranger wanting you kept feeding that disease

But paper armor isn’t stronger just because it’s painted gold

And that pretty paper crown ain’t worth shit once it folds

Paper thin

Ego

Paper thin

Crown

You lit your own fire

Now watch it burn down

Paper thin

Throne

Paper thin

Pride

You kept feeding the flame

Now it’s starting to to claim

Keep pretending you’re untouchable

Keep putting on the show

One little spark hits paper

Then everybody knows

Paper thin

Tearing at the seams

Paper thin

Nothing’s what it seems

Paper thin

Watch it all burn down

You lit the flame yourself

Now it’s taking your crown

Then you fucked around with fire just to prove you still had heat

Every secret was a match you kept on striking at your feet

Needed one more pair of eyes, one more reason to feel chased

Till the smoke got way too thick to hide the truth behind your face

Now you’re standing in the ashes pointing fingers through the smoke

Like somebody else destroyed the fragile kingdom that you broke

I never struck the matches, never had to burn a thing

Your fevered ego wanted fire

Now it swallowed everything

Paper thin

Ego

Paper thin

Crown

You lit your own fire

Now watch it burn down

Paper thin

Throne

Paper thin

Pride

You fucked around with fiire

I bet it fucking burns doesn’t it.

Blame me for the ashes

Blame whoever knows

But every flame that burned you

Started underneath your throne

Paper thin

Tearing at the seams

Paper thin

Now everybody sees

Paper thin

Watch it all burn down

You lit the flame yourself

Now it’s taking your crown
