Paper Lyrics by Ali Henderson

Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

2022

[Verse]
Feel like I live in house made of cotton candy
Every time I cry it's like the walls all start to melt around me
Sometimes its just too sugary
But that's my immaturity
All of my friends are hotboxing the basement
So I climbed the stairs because I couldn't take it
All this instability
Feeds my immaturity

[Chorus]
Locked in my room and I'm singing to Hayley
Cause I'm in the business where misery loves me
Getting sick of jumping through the hoops
When I never know where I'm jumping to

[Verse]
Tear these walls down
Can't tastе the flavor it's all turned to paper
See it all now
Just an illusion causе I'm young and stupid
Painted the world with a sky full of daisies
But now I'm grown up and that sounds fucking crazy
Tear these walls down

[Verse]
I grew up thinking that things would get better
But no kind of dancing can change up the weather
This is all so new to me
Is this my reality
Tryna pay rent but my @%#? overdrawing
My phones blowing up cause the banks always calling
Getting sick of jumping through the hoops
When I never know where I'm jumping to

[Chorus]
Tear these walls down
Can't taste the flavor it's all turned to paper
See it all now
Just an illusion cause I'm young and stupid
Painted the world with a sky full of daisies
But now I'm grown up and that sounds fucking crazy
Tear these walls down

[Bridge]
Tear these walls down tear em' down
I wanna tear them down

[Chorus]
Painted the world with a sky full of daisies
But now I'm grown up and that sounds fucking crazy
Tear these walls down
