Lyrics for Paper Hats

When the strangest fictions turn out to be the truth It's the so-called storyteller has the burden of the proof Every year she throws a party for the man she says had took her mind away They both wear paper hats, and there's a jelly shaped like a rabbit on a plate I would not risk killing love My words would leave a trail of blood I would not risk killing love My words would leave a trail of blood She looks for one reason for why she's acting strange And she blames the seasons for her behaviour change Tell the one you love the things they want to hear though you might betray yourself And keep faith with the family, the scientists, the chemicals, on your bathroom shelf I would not risk killing love My words would leave a trail of blood I would not risk killing love My words would leave a trail of blood I would not risk killing love My words would leave a trail of blood I would not risk killing love My words would leave a trail of blood
