lyrics

1st verse:
Every day I'm waiting for the moment I can crack open the pages and I find my escape. Words are filling up my brain and now I get to get on the train to get away get away get away get away! Get away to the world of Seaweed Brains and Wise Girls, with invisibility caps and honey-blonde curls where your pens turn into swords and you're friends with gods and lords, you can open all your cages if you just open the pages.

Chorus:
Ink is spilling all over my hands but I don't even care 'cause I'm not really here...I'm in the lost city, who cares about TV? Papercuts are slicing through my fingers but I don't mind...And we can be the kings if you'll just read with me...

2nd verse:
Dragons? No problem! I fight 'em every day, there are legendary monsters trying to get out of my way because my friends and I are powerful - who cares if they're fictional? This ship won't sink, it's canon (I think), author please don't kill my friends. But it's okay. No matter what we just keep reading every day because now our pens are swords and we're friends with gods and lords, you can open all your cages if you just open the pages.

Chorus

Bridge:
These papercuts don't hurt at all x2
These papercuts x7
