Paper Palace

Oh girl

What you've been sayin', you've been sayin' 

Just to leave a mark

Hold on 

have you been stayin', you've been stayin'

Just to play a part

Keep rising higher

Til you're the girl that you've never seen

Older and wiser

Now you're more than you've ever been

Oh boy

Now you've been prayin', you've been prayin'

Hands on the floor

But I know

That you've been lyin', you've been lyin'

Just to win a war

Keep rising higher 

Til you're the boy that you've never seen  

Older and wiser

Now you're more than you've ever been 

Keep rising higher 

Til you're the one that you've never seen  

Older and wiser

Now you're more than you've ever been

Sound of your voice

Look in your eyes

I'll put 'em in my pocket

But those sweet eyes

They ought to lie

Your secret's safe I kept it

Cause when you built me a paper palace 

and when I got my life in balance

You fired it up  

Until we both came running out 

You built me a paper palace 

And I got my life in balance

You fired it up  

Until we both came running out 

When I felt weak

Could hardly breathe

You took me in a heartbeat

And you kept me safe

Make no mistake

I'm still trusting every inch of you 

Cause when you built me a paper palace 

And when I got my life in balance

You fired it up  

Until we both came running out 

You built me a paper palace 

And I got my life in balance

You fired it up...

Paper palace

I got my...

My life in balance

Paper palace

I got my..

My life in balance

Cause when you built me a paper palace 

And when I got my life in balance

You fired it up  

Until we both came running out 

You built me a paper palace 

And I got my life in balance

You fired it up

Until we both came running out

Cause when you built me a paper palace 

And when I got my life in balance

You fired it up  

Until we both came running out 

You built me a paper palace 

And when I got my life in balance

You fired it up

Until we both came running out
