[Verse 1] I wore your silence like gold Heavy on my throat Under the arcade rain We kept our little oath Your name on my knuckles Washed off by the night But I still taste the ember When you fade from sight [Pre-Chorus] Hold on Don’t let it break One more spark One more mistake Hold on I hear it call If we fall We fall in style [Chorus] Paper crown, stay on me Burning bright, burning free Paper crown, don’t let go We were fire in the snow Paper crown, hear me sing Broken vows, silver rings Paper crown, up we rise Make a throne out of the skies [Verse 2] You left a glass on the table Cracked by morning light And every shard kept flashing Like a fight we couldn’t fight I traced your face in the steam On the window pane Then the rhythm hit like thunder And I said your name [Pre-Chorus] Hold on Don’t let it break One more spark One more mistake Hold on I hear it call If we fall We fall in style [Chorus] Paper crown, stay on me Burning bright, burning free Paper crown, don’t let go We were fire in the snow Paper crown, hear me sing Broken vows, silver rings Paper crown, up we rise Make a throne out of the skies [Bridge] If this is the last thing Let it blaze Let it spill through the cracks Let it shake I’ll wear the ruin Like a sign You were never lost You were mine [Final Chorus] Paper crown, stay on me Burning bright, burning free Paper crown, don’t let go We were fire in the snow Paper crown, hear me sing Broken vows, silver rings Paper crown, up we rise Make a throne out of the skies Paper crown, one more time I still reach for your light Paper crown, lift me high Till the whole room turns to sky
