"Paper Castle" lyrics - ATREYU

ATREYU
"Paper Castle"

Now you're gone, I'm left to pick up the pieces
Of a broke-broken heart you shattered
Exploded when you left us
Scar, rip, tear and fracture
You left a big disaster
There were so many questions
That we can never answer

[Chorus:]
I built this paper castle
I'll be the one to burn it down
I'll just forget what happened
Before the ashes hit the ground

[Post-Chorus:]
Let's burn it down
Let's burn it down
Let's burn it down

You were so golden that
We forgot you're human and
In, in that second
Even the gods can bleed
Smash, crash into the ground
You weren't even fucking around
I wish you only knew
We were all here to catch you
We would've carried you

[Chorus:]
I built this paper castle
I'll be the one to burn it down
I'll just forget what happened
Before the ashes hit the ground

[Bridge:]
What you've taken, we can't take back
No, there won't be a replacement
What a waste we couldn't face this
So let's face it, we must face this
Find a reason to keep good faith in
What's left of this half-life
Affected by a life cut short

[Chorus:]
I built this paper castle
I'll be the one to burn it down
I'll just forget what happened
Before the ashes hit the ground

[Post-Chorus:]
Let's burn it down (Let's burn it down)
Let's burn it down
Let's burn it down (Let's burn it down)
Let's burn it down
Let's burn it down
