Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You said "relax, it's nothing"
Just a scratch on my trust, you grin
Tiny red on a white shirt
But it burns like you cut my skin
You call it drama, I call it truth
You roll your eyes, I bleed for two
Little lies, lined up like teeth
Every smile takes a piece of me
[Pre-Chorus]
You touch my hand, I pull away (pull away)
You say my name like it's okay
If it's so small, why can't I breathe?
Why does this ache still follow me?
[Chorus]
You call it a paper cut
But I'm pouring out, pouring out
You say that I'm making it up
But I'm drowning now, drowning now
Yeah, it looks so small from the outside
But it's running down, running down my life
You call it a paper cut
But I'm bleeding out, bleeding out (oh)
[Verse 2]
You leave your phone face downward
Say it's work, but your pulse runs fast
I taste metal in my mouth now
Every word like broken glass
You laugh it off, "you're sensitive"
Like my heart's just decorative
You say, "baby, it's not that deep"
So why can't I get any sleep?
[Pre-Chorus]
You touch my hand, I flinch again (flinch again)
You say I'm cold, I say "and then?"
If it's so light, why's it so loud?
Why am I scared to say it out?
[Chorus]
You call it a paper cut
But I'm pouring out, pouring out
You say that I'm making it up
But I'm drowning now, drowning now
Yeah, it looks so small from the outside
But it's running down, running down my life
You call it a paper cut
But I'm bleeding out, bleeding out (hey)
[Bridge]
One word, one look
Tiny tear in the page we wrote
Small crack, big flood
Now the ink runs over every quote
You say "baby, I'm still here"
But your voice feels far, feels unclear
If this is nothing, why do I
Why do I feel like I could die?
[Chorus]
You call it a paper cut
But I'm pouring out, pouring out
You say that I'm making it up
But I'm drowning now, drowning now
Yeah, it looks so small from the outside
But it's running down, running down my life
You call it a paper cut
But I'm bleeding out, bleeding out (oh yeah)
You call it a paper cut
But I'm cutting you, cutting you out
