lyrics

Papercut thin and paper clip deep
I hate being awake, but I don't want to sleep
You promised, you promised to keep me
But I never promised a thing

Chorus
My paper heart falls down and dissolves to debris
My love spills out and it's blue when I bleed
No love spell
No wishing well
Will help me start to breathe

Paperweight heavy, Paperback thick
Genius like Hawking, but dumb as brick
The shower's run cold and she's shaking
And she never promised a thing

Chorus

With paper doll flimsy self-esteem
My head explodes
My lungs collapse
My eyes were never green
Nothing's as it seems to be

My paper heart falls down and dissolves to debris
My love spills out and it's red when I bleed
No love spell
No wishing well
Can help me with my troubles now
I'm fine and I can't breathe

Nighty Night

AFP is THE biggest influence in my life as a musician. Her work ethic, interaction with her fanbase, and not to mention her music are all ASTOUNDING. saintdoriangray

Alien Home
by Tom Milsom

The level of sophistication involved in the stuff Tom Milsom produces makes my toes tingle in anticip...ation. He ranges between catchy, thought provoking, and really damn chill! saintdoriangray

50 Shades of Pellegrino
by Thus Chuck Said

Is it terrible and rude of me to recommend my other project? Probably. But we write stuff about Supernatural. So yeah. saintdoriangray
