Paper Bones

Built around Feeling fragile and hollow inside despite appearing strong to the world. Live Wire's voltage-cranked guitars carries the concept through grunge that rewards repeat listens. "Solid brick from the ground to the street" — the kind of line that sticks in your head three days later. The mood runs vulnerable, heavy. Genre showcases on Majik's aren't filler — they're proof that independent music can carry real emotional weight when the lyrics and production align.

[verse 1] They see a wall when they look at me Solid brick from the ground to the street But I know what's behind the paint A skeleton of old complaint I fold so easy when the pressure comes Held together by bubblegum Don't lean too hard or I might break I'm not as strong as the face I make [chorus] Paper bones, paper bones I am a house of paper bones One strong wind and I'll be gone Scattered pages on the lawn Paper bones, all I've known [verse 2] I smile and say I'm doing fine Memorized every single line But my hands are shaking underneath the table Holding on as long as I am able Every compliment just makes it worse A medal pinned onto a paper shirt If they knew how thin the walls were here They'd handle me with so much care [chorus] Paper bones, paper bones I am a house of paper bones One strong wind and I'll be gone Scattered pages on the lawn Paper bones, all I've known [bridge] But maybe that's okay Maybe fragile things don't have to stay Maybe what gets torn can be rewritten Every word more honest than the last Maybe paper burns but paper lasts [chorus] Paper bones, paper bones I am a house of paper bones One strong wind and I'll be gone Scattered pages on the lawn Paper bones, paper bones But I'm rewriting every one Paper bones
