I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Don't wanna be alone
But no one could fill your space

Look at us
We were good together till it wasn’t enough
Couldn’t stay like this forever, huh?
Paperhearts
Lightweight and quite breakable
Paper cuts
Open wounds and vulnerable

I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Don’t want to be alone
But no one could fill your space
I don’t blame you for not wanting to stay
In the long run it might be better that way
I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Paperhearts are built that way

No one’s at fault
I'm just a little too broken to be someone's love
I'm good at feeling, bad at coping
We’re different
But on the same page when it comes to innocence
No one did the other wrong

I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Don’t want to be alone
But no one could fill your space
I don’t blame you, for not wanting to stay
In the long run it might be better that way
I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Paperhearts are built that way

We tried to sneak around the finish line
One foot out the door, but half of me is still inside
Now I turn into a souvenir box
Will you dust me off?
We tried to sneak around the finish line
We survived the war
But it somehow feels like we died
Now I turn into a souvenir box
Will you dust me off?

I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Don’t want to be alone
But no one could fill your space
I don’t blame you, for not wanting to stay
In the long run it might be better that way
I'm letting you go
With a smile on my face
Paperhearts are built that way
