Sockpuppet - Paper Cuts Lyrics

I got your letter
Addressed to me
Don't know why you sent it
It's such a mystery

You said you're broken
Trying to hide
Asked me how I'm doing, said you're
Burning up inside

You tell a story
A lover in the past
You say you think this time will be different
That we will last

I don't need this kind of attention
And I don't want your affection
I don't want you to always tell me
How you think this is meant to be

Another letter
You talk of dreams
Seeing us together
And everything's serene

Another story
How everything was wrong
Until the day you met me, how I'm
Wonderful and strong

I think you should know
It's hard on me
The love you think you have is just a
Cause of misery

I don't need this kind of attention
And I don't want your affection
I don't want you to always tell me
How you think this is meant to be

Another letter
The paper splattered red
By the time I read this you think
That you might be dead

You said you loved me
Why did I lead you on
I'm pretty sure I didn't want your
Melancholy song

I call your lover
She says you're doing fine
She told me that you said to tell me,
"Please stay on the line"

I don't need this kind of attention
And I don't want your affection
I don't want you to *ever* tell me
How you think this is meant to be

You say you're sorry
For acting such a fool
But can we still be friends if it would
Not be cold and cruel

I say I'm sorry
I never wanted you
The image that you had of me was
Anything but true

We say we're sorry
And share a quiet shame
I'm sorry if you wanted me
I just don't feel the same
