Paper cuts and open wounds, they all began because of you
But I don't blame you
Friends come round to sympathise and over-analyse but
So simple somehow

Someone always has to take the blame
Turning out this fading light with no shame
But after all the roses fall
Remember, to look away

Paper chains and empty rooms, another lonely afternoon
I see you smiling
Out of the corner of my eye, the dark is closing in
But I still don't know why

Hear me out
I have become, so much more than I ever was
With you
I'm just beginning
Don't waste your promises, let them go
Just let me go
