Paper Walls

Verse 1

Midnight

Coffee's cold

The keys are on the table

I didn't see you come home last night

Maybe I was dreaming

Maybe I was working

Maybe I was just gone

My laptop screen is the only thing glowing

Blue light

On your face

You look like a ghost in this kitchen

Chorus

Are we the tragedy

The poison and the dagger

Or the curse in the castle

Hiding from the mirror

We're too fast

We're too loud

Building walls out of paper

Are we good for us

Are we good for us

Are we good for us

Drop

Are we good

Are we good

Verse 2

Traffic

Bumper to bumper

I missed your call twice today

Small stabs

Tiny tears in the fabric

You bought those flowers just to watch them die

Empty

Water glass

Sitting by the bed for a week

Tired eyes

Heavy heart

Broken glass in the hallway

I'm sorry

You're sorry

We're both just drowning in the schedule

Chorus

Are we the tragedy

The poison and the dagger

Or the curse in the castle

Hiding from the mirror

We're too fast

We're too loud

Building walls out of paper

Are we good for us

Are we good for us

Are we good for us

Drop

Are we good

Are we good

Bridge

Stop the clock

Pull the plug on the lamp

Sit down

Just for a second

I don't want to be a story

I just want to be yours

If the roses are wilted

We can plant something new

It's a long way back

But I'm looking at you now

Really looking

Finally seeing

Chorus

Are we the tragedy

The poison and the dagger

Or the curse in the castle

Hiding from the mirror

We're too fast

We're too loud

Building walls out of paper

Are we good for us

Are we good for us

Are we good for us

Outro

Turn it off

Let's stay here

Just stay

Just stay

Maybe we're just us

And that's enough

For tonight

It's enough
