Papercuts Lyrics by Squalloscope

Annette

2020

Talking about roses and the time we spend
All tied up to our lukewarm homes
Knock on the door and all I hear is chatter
About how I'll end up alone
I’ve written you in blackest ink
I've written you sweetly by morning light
I've sent these pages on their way
We’re bigger than all these little men combined
(Bigger than, bigger than, bigger than)

There's four of us up here
It's me, quill, ink, and paper
And the four of us will not betray
No money will shake us

There's four of us up here
It's me, quill, ink, and paper
And the four of us will not betray
No money will shake us
No money will shake us

I'm going to lie down in this snail house
And I'm gonna change the locks
I will let time change my face
And time will change itself
Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock

And the only blood I'll draw in this war
And the only blood I’ll draw in this war
And the only blood I’ll draw in this war are
Papercuts, papercuts, papercuts

And the only blood I'll draw in this war
And the only blood I’ll draw in this war
And the only blood I'll draw in this war are
Papercuts, papercuts, papercuts

Father says it's not not his fault
Father says he was not in charge
I got this broken brain, I've been calling it names
But look, mother, it’s gotten me this far

Father says it's not not his fault
Father says he was not in charge
I got this broken brain, I've been calling it names
But look, mother, it's gotten me this far
(And the only blood I'll draw in this war)

Father says it's not not his fault
(And the only blood I'll draw in this war)
Father says he was not in charge
(And the only blood I'll draw in this war)
I got this broken brain, I've been calling it names
But look, mother, it's gotten me this far

And the only blood I'll draw in this war are
Papercuts, papercuts, papercuts
(And the only blood)
(And the only blood)
And the only blood I'll draw in this war
(And the only blood)
And the only blood I'll draw in this war
(And the only blood)
And the only blood I'll draw in this war are
Papercuts, papercuts, papercuts
