Paper Doll Script of lies

(Verse 1)

You looked me in the eye, said you were proud

While I broke my back to clear the cloud

You said "I’m honest," you said "Trust me"

While you were drawing up a map to flee.

I was paying the bills, keeping the lights on

You were hoarding the cash for the break of dawn

You fed me sugar just to keep me blind

While you engineered the exit in the back of your mind.

(Pre-Chorus)

It wasn’t love, it was sedation

For your twisted operation.

You kissed my lips and you packed the bags,

As you ran away waving white flags.

(Chorus)

It’s just a movie script, it’s a paper doll

You built a house of cards just to watch it fall

You say "I’m safe," but you stole the keys

You say "I’m honest," while you brought me to my knees twisting the knife deeper,

But the camera’s off, and the lights are dead

And I’m left with the silence of the things you said.

Yeah, you wrote the scene, but you forgot one thing

The Wolf sees through the puppet string.

(Verse 2)

You say she’s “loved”

"She’s doing good," "She’s happy girl"

Generic words for a broken world.

You ignore the song, you ignore the sound

You’re trying to bury me underground.

You hold the truth like a hand grenade

Living in the wreckage of plans you made.

You asked for my guns ‘cause you "feared for my life"

Then you twisted the handle of the hidden knife deeper.

(Bridge)

Do you believe it?

When you look in the mirror, is the lie true?

Or do you see the bags in the garage?

Do you see the wire you wore?

Do you see your heart where our love used to be?

Is that what an honest woman does?

(Chorus)

It’s just a movie script, it’s a paper doll

You built a house of cards just to watch it fall

You say "I’m safe," but you stole the keys

You say "I’m honest," while you brought me to my knees twisting the knife deeper.

But the camera’s off, and the lights are dead

And I’m left with the silence of the things you said.

Yeah, you wrote the scene, but you forgot one thing

The Wolf sees through the puppet string.

(Outro)

Keep your script.

You can’t edit...

The way you cracked.
