[Intro]
Paper cuts
Paper cuts
Paper cuts
Paper cuts

[Verse 1]
Bare knuckles, we don't wear gloves
'Cause we need to feel connection
To the animal inside of us
That claims no recollection
And we always have to aim so low
'Cause we need to feel connection

[Chorus]
So why should I run from paper tigers?
Why should I run from paper tigers?
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
I know they're only paper cuts, only paper cuts

[Verse 2]
So I don't need another anthem
To understand wherе I'm comin' from
Or to buy my way in Heaven
'Cause of еverything that they don't know
And claim no recollection
[Chorus]
So why should I run from paper tigers?
Why should I run from paper tigers?
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
I know they're only paper cuts, only paper cuts

[Bridge]
Don't need, don't need another anthem
To understand where I'm comin' from
Or to buy my way in Heaven
To the… to the animal inside of us
That claim no recollection
The witness has refection
Oh, the witness has reflection
Oh, the witness has reflection

[Chorus]
So why should I run from paper tigers?
Why should I run from paper tigers?
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
Just 'cause you scratch colored orange and black
I know they're only paper cuts, only paper cuts
[Outro]
Oh, the witness has reflection
Oh, the witness has reflection
Paper cuts
Paper cuts
Paper cuts
Paper cuts
