It's not the feeling like when you touch a flame 
No it's not like when someone calls you a bad name 
It's not like the hurt when you slip and fall down 
No it's not like any of these, what I found is 

Your love hurts like a paper cut 
So sweet 
Never even feel, it slices so deep 
It seems so harmless but only at first 
Like a paper cut the pain grows worse 

Oh, oh 

It's not so much in the words that you don't say 
It's not when you act in a distantly cold way 
It's more in your eyes, how you look at me 
Like you no longer care for what I see 

Your love hurts like a paper cut 
So sweet 
Never even feel, it slices so deep 
It seems so harmless but only at first 
Like a paper cut the pain grows worse 

You had to go and show me just how good 
Your love could be, than you threw it all away 
I can't help but feel a brand new pain 
So I'm asking baby please stay 

Your love hurts like a paper cut 
So sweet 
Never even feel, it slices so deep 
It seems so harmless but only at first 
Like a paper cut the pain grows worse 

Oh, oh 
Oh, oh 
(the pain grows worse) 
Oh, oh 
Oh, oh 
(the pain grows worse) 
Oh, oh 
(the pain grows worse)
