Айрис Торн - Paper Doll

You like me better when my mouth is shut
A perfect picture in a golden frame
You tell me calm down when
I'm getting worked up
You love the echo but you hate the flame
I used to shrink myself to fit your hands
A paper doll you dress up in command
But paper tears so easily and
I've been soaking in the rain
You left me out here in the freezing cold
Now watch me fall right out of your life
I don't wanna be your paper doll anymore
I don't wanna be the quiet one you ignore
You had the real thing but you wanted a toy
You lost a good girl
Now you got the void
Yeah, you lost a good girl
You never asked me where
I wanted to go
You just assumed
I'd follow you around
You loved the idea of me putting on a show
But when the curtain dropped, you let me down
I painted on the smile you wanted to see
But the artist in me is finally breaking free
Cause paper burns so easily and
I've been standing in the sun
You left me out here in the boiling heat
Now watch me burn this version of me
I don't wanna be your paper doll anymore
I don't wanna be the quiet one you ignore
You had the real thing, but you wanted a toy
You lost a good girl
Now you got the void
Yeah, you lost a good girl
This isn't anger, it's just clear
I'm not disappearing, I'm finally standing here
And for the first time
I can hear my own voice
I will never be your paper doll anymore
I will never be the quiet one you ignore
You had the real thing but you wanted a toy
You lost a good girl
Now you got the void
You lost a good girl
You lost a good girl
Now you got the boy and
I've got me
