"Paper House" lyrics

"Paper House"

Looking down at your phone screen, broken
Choking up better words, unspoken
Play it cool, like I'm the one that chose it

Quench my thirst like a sugar-free Gatorade
It tastes worse when I think about the price I paid
Play it cool like I'm the one who didn't wanna stay

Care too much, and the walls come down
Tearing up my paper house
Teach me how to live without losing
Teach me how to live without losing
Losing, losing, losing
Teach me how to live without you

Using up all of my last tokens
Spare the hurt, don't wanna be withholding
Play it cool, like I can keep this open

On the cusp, but it's just another weekday
Think about words we said and can't say
Play it cool, like this is something I can sustain

Care too much, and the walls come down
Tearing up my paper house
Teach me how to live without losing
Teach me how to live without losing
Losing, losing, losing
Teach me how to live without
Tearing up my paper house
Teach me how to live without you

Teach me how to live without
Tearing up my paper house
Teach me how to live without
Tearing up my paper house
