[Intro]
Lately I've been paper-thin
So, why can't I fly?
Why can't I move with the wind on a whim?

[Verse 1]
I saw a side of you I never knew
But were we ever near enough?
And all we have to do is talk it through
But words are never good enough

[Chorus 1]
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?
We're close enough

[Post-Chorus 1]
See the surface
I can make it up
Might not be perfect
But I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, but can I make it up?
[Verse 2]
But what'd you want to hear? I'm crystal clear
But you were never clear enough
And if it were two-way, it's hard to say
'Cause words are never good enough

[Chorus 1]
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?
We're close enough

[Post-Chorus 2]
See the surface
I can make it up
Might not be perfect
But I can make it up, I can make it up (See the surface)
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up (Might not be perfect)
I can make it up, but can I make it up?
I can make it up[Counter Chorus 1]
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up[Chorus 2]
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?[Counter Chorus 1]
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
I can make it up, I can make it up
Can I make it up? I can make it up[Chorus 2]
They only get in your way
Paper-thin paper weight
Are we close enough?[Outro]
See the surface
See the surface
See the surface
