Paper Roses

Written: October 2022

Genre: Pop

A/N: Just like a lot of the songs posted in this book, this one is fictional and derived from my imagination. I seriously have zero experience with guys, just silly, dumb crushes, but writing songs about boys is kinda fun ngl and I hate that tbh. 

Anyways, this isn't about any guy in particular, just had some fun with the lyrics to prove a point about a specific type of guy that just put a bad name for all men, when that shouldn't be the case, because not all men are douches. There are good guys, dunno why I believed otherwise for the majority of my life 🙄

1ST VERSE

You think you can level up to me?

With compliments, calling me pretty

Your common sense is more like nonsense

You'll never level up to me If you really believe

A shitty stunt like that would fool me for a second

Oh, you think you're so irreverent

Except you're not ( Yeah, I said it)

So quit the bullshit, it's about time you listen

PRE-CHORUS:

You think you're rare to find

Well, sorry to disrupt your inner belief

But well, you ain't all that

It's about time you know that

Now you know that

CHORUS:

Go ahead, pull out paper roses

So delicate, easy to detach

Did you think I wouldn't notice something like that?

2ND VERSE:

Recite your poems, oh, you know I love them

But that's about it honestly

I can't sign your oath When I know you're bound to go

Cause that's what you do

Suit and tie, dressed to impress

Paris is where your money's spent 

You don't have to worry about rent

I guess that's why we're so different

You're so blind You only see women

Your language is paychecks and I don't need no saving

PRE-CHORUS:

You think you're rare to find

Well, sorry to disrupt your inner belief

But well, you ain't all that

It's about time you know that

Now you know that

CHORUS:

Go ahead, pull out paper roses

So delicate, easy to detach

Did you think I wouldn't notice something like that

Well guess what? I noticed something like that

And paper roses make me sad

So take your damn paper roses back

And head back to your habitat

BRIDGE:

I thought you were genuine

For a moment thereI thought you and I

We were heading somewhere

But you closed the highline, Alas, a dead end

After what you did, there'll never be amends

CHORUS:

Go ahead, pull out paper roses

So delicate, easy to detach

Did you think I wouldn't notice something like that

Well guess what? I noticed something like that

And paper roses make me sad

So take your damn paper roses back

And head back to your habitat
