PaperIt took me awhile to finally grasp the idea / That your promises were paper, nowhere near steel. / You'd bend them and break them with just the form of your lips

I don't love youYou asked me a question you already knew the answer to / You cared if I was out with other boys / But I never cared at all

BooksI spend my nights curled up with books filled with people I've never met but whose lives I wish I had lived / Frayed and worn from over reading and misuse / In this one the girl meets a boy and he doesn't break her heart

I wish.I wish that for once my hair would do what I want, / I wish that your eyes would stop haunting my thoughts. / I wish I knew what I'd be good at in life,

The boy I thought that I had loved.These memories are part of me, they're wrapped around my soul, / Each sound you make is joyful but it's not me that you hold. / Time has lessened little pain from when the wounds were new,

NostalgiaWhy do you do this to me, he's falling in love, while I fall to my knees. / I get so close to forgetting, and it happens so fast, / You bring back a memory of my once happy past.

All the wrong reasons.Don't pretend that you love me because I know it's a lie, / I can tell by the way you keep shifting your eyes. / I could tell by the urgency I felt in your lips,

Second best.I pick up the phone and put it back down, convince myself that there's no use. / It'll only bring back memories I've been trying my best to forget. / But they live in my walls and the harder I run, the faster that I start to fall.

I'm over you.I'm not in denial and I'm no longer sad, / I'm just pissed at myself for being so goddamn naive. / I'm pissed that I let you get the best of me, when I never got shit from you.
