About This Track

'Papercuts' by Uffie is a 2019 pop track from the album 'Tokyo Love Hotel'. The lyrics frame a fraught, self-scrutinising spiral, with overthinking turning into an intimate demand for sharper hurt. In the speaker’s view, the other person’s “little paper cuts” do not land, so the imagery escalates from irritation to deliberate, escalating cruelty, ending on a wish to be truly felt. The tone is restless and damaged, flirting with masochistic logic while insisting that shallow pain is not enough.

"Papercuts" is a track by Uffie, from the album Tokyo Love Hotel, released 22nd February 2019. The track is 3:09 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about Uffie.

Lyrics

Papercuts

I start thinking, over thinking
Maybe I'm a mess
You're incisions, indecisions
Leave me so depressed

All your little paper cuts don't cut deep enough
Push the knife deeper, show me that you mean it
Paper cuts ain't really doing much
Stab me in the heart, babe

Imagine that you feel like I do
All the tables turned
Gasoline dipping, matched your skin, lit it
But it didn't burn

All your little paper cuts don't cut deep enough
Push the knife deeper, show me that you mean it
Paper cuts ain't really doing much
Stab me in the heart, babe

I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be waiting for you

(Cut paper, rock, scissor
Scissor, paper, heart breaker
Cut paper, rock, scissor
Scissor, paper, heart breaker)
