Paper Heart Songtext

von Turin Brakes

This is not me
I was never cut out for this scenery
I'm just a paper boy
Your crushed paper toy
And nothing has changed
Only paper landscapes ripped and rearranged
By an angry girl
This torn paper world

If only I knew that your spark
Would set fire to my paper heart
Paper heart

I live by the sea
Not the one you're thinking
But the sea inside of me

To you unseen
But you shake the ground
You rearrange the sunsets and terrorize this town
And it's you I blame
When I crash paper planes

If only I knew that your spark
Would set fire to my paper heart
Paper heart

If only I knew from the start
You'd tear right through my paper heart
Paper heart

This is not me
I was never cut out for this scenery
I'm just a paper boy
