[Verse 1] I walk through rooms with careful steps Every word feels like a test I laugh so no one sees the cracks But paper skin can’t take impact I fold myself to fit the frame Smile until it hides the shame But when the weight begins to show This fragile shell can’t hold it, no [Pre-Chorus] I’m not unbreakable, I’m not made of stone Every silence cuts me, every night alone [Chorus] I’m paper skin, but I’m still alive Tears may bend me, but I survive Every crease and tear reveals the truth within I’m not unworthy—I’m just paper skin [Verse 2] The world says, “strong,” but I feel weak A gentle hand is all I seek Don’t tell me scars should make me proud When breaking’s all I’m allowed I’ve hidden long behind this face But fragility can still be grace If I am torn, at least you’ll see The rawest form of what is me [Pre-Chorus] I can’t keep pretending that I never bleed What you call fragile is what makes me me [Chorus] I’m paper skin, but I’m still alive Tears may bend me, but I survive Every crease and tear reveals the truth within I’m not unworthy—I’m just paper skin [Bridge – Build] If I break, let me break in light If I fall, let it sound like fight I won’t hide, I won’t erase Even paper can carry weight [Final Chorus – Big + soaring] I’m paper skin, and I’ll still remain Fragile, human, but not in vain Every crease and fold tells where I’ve been I’ll keep on living in this paper skin [Outro] Paper skin, but not destroyed Fragile voice, but still a voice
