Paper Doll Lyrics & Tabs by The Nearly Deads
Paper Doll
guitar chords lyrics
How can I keep myself from fallin' apart when this is so hard?
I see you there, against the wall, with the folded arms
You don't define me, you don't own me, but now here we are
I want to impress you, want to impress you, with your empty eyes
Just stare me down
Just stare me down
This is the first time that I've opened my mouth
But it won't be the last, no it won't be the last
I need attention, I need the spotlight that you left me in
Oh, oh, I'm fallin' apart, like a paper doll right into your arms
Won't you dress me up and make me joke, I will let you in
Cause that's what I want
That's what I want
Now that I'm selfaware and torn apart, do you still care?
I've played the victim just enough to put on a show
That's what I want
Now that I'm selfaware and torn apart, do you still care?
I've played the victim just enough to put on a show
I'm now searching for my former self, the girl you stole from me
She's waiting tables, buying time for her big day cue
Here she is now (here she is)
This is the first time that I've opened my mouth
But it won't be the last, no it won't be the last
I need attention, I need the spotlight that you left me in
Oh, oh, I'm fallin' apart, like a paper doll right into your arms
Won't you dress me up and make me joke, I will let you in
Won't you dress me up and make me joke, I will let you in
Cause that's what I want
That's what I want
This peace and quiet, or this silence, this will never do
I need the chaos and the violence
I'm not keep it quiet
Oh, oh, now I'm falling apart like a paper doll
This is the first time that I've opened my mouth
But it won't be the last, no it won't be the last
I need attention, I need the spotlight that you left me in
Oh, oh, I'm fallin' apart, like a paper doll right in front of you
Won't you dress me up and make me joke, I will let you in
Won't you dress me up and make me joke, I will let you in
Cause that's what I want
