[Verse 1]
You left your keys in my bowl
Next to the chipped blue mug
I caught your name in the hallway
Like a thread in an old rug
Your coat still hangs by the door
One sleeve turned inside out
I keep the small things moving
So they don't call you out
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tell myself, be still
Let the house keep your shape
But every room says your name
In a different way
[Chorus]
Wear your paper crown
Don't let it fall down
Hold that wild heart high
Even when you're tired
Wear your paper crown
I can see you now
Rising from the floor
Like you did before
[Verse 2]
The lemons went soft in the sink
I forgot to throw them away
Your shoes on the mat by the window
Make the whole place sway
I learned how silence can ring
When it wants something back
I walk that line in the kitchen
And step on your tracks
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tell myself, be still
Let the house keep your shape
But every room says your name
In a different way
[Chorus]
Wear your paper crown
Don't let it fall down
Hold that wild heart high
Even when you're tired
Wear your paper crown
I can see you now
Rising from the floor
Like you did before
[Bridge]
If the world goes hard on you
Let it hit my door
I'll be the bench by the window
I'll be the guard on the floor
[Final Chorus]
Wear your paper crown
Don't let it fall down
Hold that wild heart high
Even when you're tired
Wear your paper crown
I can see you now
Rising from the floor
Like you did before
You left your keys in my bowl
Next to the chipped blue mug
I caught your name in the hallway
Like a thread in an old rug
Your coat still hangs by the door
One sleeve turned inside out
I keep the small things moving
So they don't call you out
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tell myself, be still
Let the house keep your shape
But every room says your name
In a different way
[Chorus]
Wear your paper crown
Don't let it fall down
Hold that wild heart high
Even when you're tired
Wear your paper crown
I can see you now
Rising from the floor
Like you did before
[Verse 2]
The lemons went soft in the sink
I forgot to throw them away
Your shoes on the mat by the window
Make the whole place sway
I learned how silence can ring
When it wants something back
I walk that line in the kitchen
And step on your tracks
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tell myself, be still
Let the house keep your shape
But every room says your name
In a different way
[Chorus]
Wear your paper crown
Don't let it fall down
Hold that wild heart high
Even when you're tired
Wear your paper crown
I can see you now
Rising from the floor
Like you did before
[Bridge]
If the world goes hard on you
Let it hit my door
I'll be the bench by the window
I'll be the guard on the floor
[Final Chorus]
Wear your paper crown
Don't let it fall down
Hold that wild heart high
Even when you're tired
Wear your paper crown
I can see you now
Rising from the floor
Like you did before
Stijl van muziek
Pop ballad with mid-tempo pulse, syncopated kick and finger snaps in verses; pre-chorus lifts with open hats and layered harmonies; chorus blooms into wide drums, stacked vocal doubles, and a soaring synth line. Verse stays close-mic and intimate, bridge strips to piano and breathy lead before the final chorus returns with ad-lib echoes, reversed swells, and a bright, punchy mix.
