I promise you
Cutting off our wings
That until I reach you
I won't stop running
But when I move I feel I'll start breaking
'Cause it doesn't take much to tear our paper skin
Tear our paper skin
On the edges of winter
We always felt so alone
I've found my place in you
Only leaving to return
But no matter where
I'm surrounded by silhouettes
I know spring will never bloom out of this loneliness
And we separate
Pulling apart
All to define all that we are
By what we hate
Not what we love
What do you love?
I promise you
Cutting off our wings
That until I reach you
I won't stop running
But when I move I feel I'll start breaking
'Cause it doesn't take much to tear our paper skin
Tear our paper skin
Whoa
Tear our paper skin
Whoa
On the edges of summer
Watching as the flowers burn
Burning through the memories
Staining the sky with a hollow dawn
And my head's weighed down, down
By the thoughts that turn to stone
To shatter the mirrors
That reflect what we don't show
And we separate
Pulling apart
All to define all that we are
By what we hate
Not what we love
What do you love?
I promise you
Cutting off our wings
That until I reach you
I won't stop running
But when I move I feel I'll start breaking
'Cause it doesn't take much to tear our paper skin
Tear our paper skin
Whoa
Tear our paper skin
Whoa
Somewhere farther than where we are now
I will find a way to free the sound
From the depths of our stolen shouts
We rust
I promise you
Cutting off our wings
That until I reach you
I won't stop running
But when I move I feel I'll start breaking
'Cause it doesn't take much to tear our paper skin
Tear our paper skin
Whoa
Tear our paper skin
Whoa
Tear our paper skin
