歌詞

You said forever

And I believed you

Yeah, silly me, huh?

You wrapped love in a vending machine prize

Called it a promise — guess I bought the lie

No diamonds, just glitter from a gas station light

But I wore it like truth every Friday night

Backseat dreams in a rusted-out Civic

Midnight fries, cheap wine, we lived it

Paper ring, yeah, it bled in the rain

But I still danced like it meant something

Your words were lighter than this city air

But damn, they burned like they cared

I knew it’d tear —

But I wore it anyway

That paper ring was everything

In a world where nothin’ stuck

You were fake gold, but I shined like

I didn’t give a—

Yeah, I played along, I sang your song

Even when the ink ran dry

We had our time, we had our ride

Now I'm just blowin’ by

You folded love like origami lies

Sharp lines, soft touch, perfect disguise

I called it fate, you called it a phase

But we kissed like we’d never end the page

I kept that note you wrote on a napkin

"Forever-ish" — next to the laughing

You were good at the first act

But never stayed for the last one

No encore, no apology

Just a ghost ridin’ shotgun beside me

Ring on the dash, sun-faded and torn

Like us — beautiful when worn

That paper ring was everything

In a world where nothin’ stuck

You were fake gold, but I shined like

I didn’t give a—

Yeah, I played along, I sang your song

Even when the ink ran dry

We had our time, we had our ride

Now I'm just blowin’ by

So cheers to the cheap, the cracked, the thin

To the things we call love — and paper rings
