Lyrics

Paper Massacre

We're paper dolls, all joined together Walking arm in arm But each float like feathers Shaken by the storm [Chorus] Then everybody started tearing up when they pulled apart Everyone had broken arms and legs and broken hearts Everybody started tearing up and they pulled apart Everyone had broken arms and legs and broken hearts Like paper chains Paper dolls gonna let me die by knife We stand in the line, hold on to life We hate that we [?] the blinding light
