[Verse 1] Dog-eared spine Ink on my hands Dinner getting cold I don’t hear them again Names in the margins Underlined prayers If I turned the page fast I could outrun upstairs [Chorus] Paper worlds raised me (raised me) When my own four walls betrayed me Dragons guarding every page Heroes holding all my rage Magic taught my heart to breathe Found a family I could keep When my home life buried me Paper worlds Yeah Paper worlds raised me [Verse 2] Kids on the playground Talking TV I was trading myths Like secret currency Sisters made of starlight Brothers born from storms I knew every doorway To a thousand better homes [Chorus] Paper worlds raised me (oh, they saved me) When my own four walls betrayed me Dragons guarding every page Heroes holding all my rage Magic taught my heart to breathe Found a family I could keep When my home life buried me Paper worlds Yeah Paper worlds raised me [Bridge] Flip the cover Step inside Every chapter I survive When the shouting finds the door I’m already on the floor Of some hidden Haunted room Sharing secrets with the moon (hey) [Chorus] Paper worlds raised me (raised me) When my own four walls betrayed me Myths and creatures Friends and ghosts Built a place that held me close Magic taught my heart to breathe Gave me roots and gave me wings When my home life buried me Paper worlds Yeah Paper worlds raised me (raised me)

pop, Emo-pop with female vocals, clean electric guitar and roomy drums. First verse starts sparse with palm-muted chords and intimate vocal, then chorus jumps into wide synth pads, fuzzed bass, and stacked harmonies on the hook. Second verse adds rhythmic backing vocals and subtle glockenspiel doubling key phrases. Bridge strips to vocals and reverb-soaked guitar swells before a final, soaring chorus with a shouted gang-vocal outro., emo
