Paper Doll - Rachael Yamagata
Only daughter
You got your ticket too soon

Holy Water
Cause everybodys getting ruined

They are waiting to see what you do

Too long, waiting
Everybody's cleared the room

And they'll dress you up
Stand you in all the right places

Words like honey
Smile as they change your faces

With no regard to you at all

And you find they treat
you like a paper doll

And they'll dress you up
for the flight
Like Ophelia, you wave goodnight
With the earth and sky
you cheer and cry
Writhe as all your days go by
And laugh as you die

Sweet softer shoulder
Oh sweet sugar safe
Sweet softer shoulder
Oh sweet sugar safe
Everybody's got their own
life philosophy

And I can't wait 'til
I find one coming from me

Oh, the bridge is narrow
You better not look down

'Cause as soon as you jump over
You won't find nobody around

Oh, the bridge is narrow
And you've got so far to fall

And you know down in dirty water's
No place for a paper doll
