enno johan - paper kingdom lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’d never have put my heart
in a house that i deemed unsafe
but all the paint that you put
over these walls didn’t seem fake

there were no peels or cracks
in the cardboard
there were no rough corners to cut myself on
with laminate

[pre+chorus]
you made it feel safe
but it was all fake

[chorus]
and this paper kingdom you built me
is more like a prison
and trust me, i’ve tried, you can’t k!ll me
it’s back like a vision

[verse 2]
i’d never have thought for a second
that i couldn’t love you
but all the pain forced onto me
proved that one an untrue
and i see all the cracks in the pavement
i see scorch marks lining the walls
i see barcodes on your arms and barcodes on mine
god, this is not what i wanted at all

[chorus]
and this paper kingdom you built me
is more like a prison
and trust me, i’ve tried, you can’t k!ll me
it’s back like a vision

and these wretched arms that i held you with
require amputation
and all the blood that’s ever dripped from them
pools in the basin

[verse 3]
i don’t care for the kingdom you built me
i want to be free
i don’t think of the tape that you hid your mistakes
it can’t hurt me

[chorus]
and this paper kingdom you built me
it burns like a bonfire
and the only thing they’ll ever see you as now
is a liar
[chorus outro]
and this paper kingdom you built me
is more like a prison
and trust me, i’ve tried, you can’t k!ll me
it’s back like a vision

and these wretched arms that i held you with
could be forgiven
and all the blood that’s ever dripped from them
could be a lesson
