Jonnie - Paper Towers

We had a story way back then
But we had to end
I didn't think I'd fall again
But you kept crawling back into my head

I try to leave it all alone, but I
Can never let go of this
Why'd you have to say you loved me?
I thought you were the one, but I
Think it every time, and I
Can never move on from this
Knowing it won't change

Don't run, don't even try to hide
'Cause I want you to stand by
While I cry and promise
I will not chase after you
This time isn't like the last
But why? You won't even ask
So I can't keep building paper towers for you

I didn't think you'd be the one
But I kept on
You never said you were done
But you had to make your own rules and then run

I try to leave it all alone, but I
Can never let go of this
Why'd you have to say you loved me?
I thought you were the one, but I
Think it every time, and I
Can never move on from this
Knowing it won't change

Don't run, don't even try to hide
'Cause I want you to stand by
While I cry and promise
I will not chase after you
This time isn't like the last
But why? You won't even ask
So I can't keep building paper towers for you

Maybe I should have trusted myself
And everyone else
Or maybe I should have loved you more

Don't run, don't even try to hide
'Cause I want you to stand by
While I lie and tell you
I will not chase after you
This time isn't like the last
But why? I won't even ask
Since I can't keep building paper towers for you

Go run and hide
(Don't run, don't even try to hide
'Cause I want you to stand by
While I cry and promise)
I will not chase after you
(This time isn't like the last
But why? You won't even ask
So I can't keep building paper towers for you)
No, I can't keep building paper towers for you
