Why you have to understand
Every single thing I am
If shit get bad then watch those paper planes fly
It’s okay, I’m here, don’t cry

Sitting on that counter, legs in the sink
You walked in, what did you think?
You just lost it, yelling lots of things
What’s the deal, where are my paper wings?

I want you to light me up like your cigarette
But instead you put me out
I want you to encourage me
But you fill me up with doubt

You want perfection
That’s what you need
The only problem is that’s not me

Don’t think you can put up a random wall
I’m not your cutout paper doll

I want you to light me up like your cigarette
But instead you put me out
I want you to encourage me
But you fill me up with doubt

I want you to light me up like your cigarette
But instead you put me out
I want you to encourage me
But you fill me up with doubt

All you wanna do is play
You never wanna have a conversation
The only thing you ever say
Is when you cry about your situations

What’s good, you all
Watch out, you’ll fall
Who said, that I
Ever cared where you went
I say (uh-huh), shut up (shut up)
You have, a crush
He don’t, so sad
Stop making me laugh (laugh, laugh, laugh, laugh)

I want you to light me up like your cigarette
But instead you put me out
I want you to encourage me
But you fill me up with doubt

All you wanna do is play
You never wanna have a conversation
The only thing you ever say
Is when you cry about your situations

I want you to light me up like your cigarette
But instead you put me out
I want you to encourage me
But you fill me up with doubt

Why you have to understand
Every single thing I am
If shit get bad then watch those paper planes fly (fly, fly, fly, fly, fly)
