Paper Heart Lyrics
I can feel in the evening air all the words I want to say
But I can tell as you turn to leave that they wouldn't make you stay
Overhead the lights come on and suddenly I see
That glow is gonna guide you home, wherever that may be
What use is a paper heart
When you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
Cause all the love that I hold inside
Feel it washing away, washing away
Let it fall, take it all, cause I'm so tired of feeling everything
So damn me and my paper heart
In this pouring rain
I can watch as you fade away
But I hold onto the pain
In these arms that just let you go
On these lips that said your name
Couldn't know it would hurt this hard
To hear you close that door
So punch a hole in my paper heart
Cause I don't need it anymore
But I can tell as you turn to leave that they wouldn't make you stay
Overhead the lights come on and suddenly I see
That glow is gonna guide you home, wherever that may be
When you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
Cause all the love that I hold inside
Feel it washing away, washing away
Let it fall, take it all, cause I'm so tired of feeling everything
So damn me and my paper heart
In this pouring rain
But I hold onto the pain
In these arms that just let you go
On these lips that said your name
Couldn't know it would hurt this hard
To hear you close that door
So punch a hole in my paper heart
Cause I don't need it anymore

one of my favorite songs in this awesome album, the significant other leaves, and one feels that they're heart is crushed, comparing it to a paper heart, they realize that their heart is more fragile then they thought...the significant others' leave has hit them harder than they thought
