Paper People by The Nagging Doubts Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You’ve found all the parts to what you think
People want you to be
Anyone can add you up
It shines right through
Quick to second guess yourself
Just let it go
A smiling face a laugh sometimes
It’s all we need
[Pre-Chorus]
But there’s paper people
Don’t get too close to him
It’s a paper personality
Its starting to wear thin
[Verse 2]
Don’t flaunt any one thing
About yourself (well I never)
Cover up the labels
That get you so high
You head out for
The third night, in a row
For no reason
You lose your mind in the same old way (and its hurts)
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause there’s paper people
Don’t get too close to him
It’s a paper personality
Its starting to wear thin
[Chorus 1]
A thin line stretches the hour
Make it last long enough
To see it all slide
Right down hill
Band-aid on band-aid off well
It’s a band-aid solution look
But don’t you dare touch
Don’t you dare touch
[Solo]
(The days are just the week)
(The days are just the week)
[Chorus 2]
I’m heading in I know you don’t mind
Do you feel that all that love in here?
Let’s all unwind
Just one more time
Let’s all just admit, well
It’s a damn good place right here
And when we roam far
There’ll be a place in our hearts
[Chorus 3]
Your back tables got a strange charm, well
I guess we’ve spent
So many long nights
Trying to hide
Let’s all pour just one more drink to
Something, cause its nothing
Just don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
You’ve found all the parts to what you think
People want you to be
Anyone can add you up
It shines right through
Quick to second guess yourself
Just let it go
A smiling face a laugh sometimes
It’s all we need
[Pre-Chorus]
But there’s paper people
Don’t get too close to him
It’s a paper personality
Its starting to wear thin
[Verse 2]
Don’t flaunt any one thing
About yourself (well I never)
Cover up the labels
That get you so high
You head out for
The third night, in a row
For no reason
You lose your mind in the same old way (and its hurts)
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause there’s paper people
Don’t get too close to him
It’s a paper personality
Its starting to wear thin
[Chorus 1]
A thin line stretches the hour
Make it last long enough
To see it all slide
Right down hill
Band-aid on band-aid off well
It’s a band-aid solution look
But don’t you dare touch
Don’t you dare touch
[Solo]
(The days are just the week)
(The days are just the week)
[Chorus 2]
I’m heading in I know you don’t mind
Do you feel that all that love in here?
Let’s all unwind

Let’s all just admit, well

And when we roam far
There’ll be a place in our hearts
[Chorus 3]
Your back tables got a strange charm, well
I guess we’ve spent
So many long nights
Trying to hide
Let’s all pour just one more drink to
Something, cause its nothing
Just don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
