Lyrics

You never quite understood
When I tried to explain
No matter what I said
Every word was in vain
'Cause you haven't been where I've been
Not that I would wish that on you
But if you'd seen what I've seen
You'd know just what I've been through

But you're a porcelain doll
With a porcelain soul
Cover up the cracks in your life with a smile
Is there a hollow heart 
Behind your porcelain mask
Isn't it enough to be yourself for a while

Who made you this way
Almost flawless on the surface
I don't trust anyone
You think the world is perfect
But don't think I've given in
'Cause I don't think I ever could
Everyone draws different lines
Between bad and good

You're just a porcelain doll
With a porcelain soul
Cover up the cracks in your life with a smile
Is there a hollow heart
Behind your porcelain mask
Isn't it enough to be yourself for a while

Take these bullets one by one
They never did you any harm
Fake this beauty like a star
Burning
Burning
Take these bullets one by one
They never did you any harm
Fake this beauty like a star
Burning

You're just a porcelain doll
With a porcelain soul
Cover up the cracks in your life with a smile
Is there a hollow heart
Behind your porcelain mask
Isn't it enough to be yourself for a while

Porcelain Doll

Take To The Sky (Worlds Adrift Soundtrack)

Singer-songwriter Freja Frances returns with another poignant new single, Papercuts, out on 2nd February 2018 via ShimmerSun Music.

Freja explains “the single is about a feeling of self-inflicted isolation and a distance from reality, told through fairytale themes.“ Papercuts yet again demonstrates Freja’s unique ability to create stunningly minimalist music that is both emotive and relatable. Accompanied by a captivating piano-led melody and a twinkle of a cello, Freja’s authentic lead vocal is able to soar. The single will also include a remix by Alex Hughes, adding another layer of ethereal soundscapes, sounding akin to the likes of Låpsley.

Since the release of her debut EP Ghosts in 2015, Freja has received praise from various publications including For Folk’s Sake, Gigslutz and Impose to name a few. She has also performed twice at Sofar Sounds London and supported Dodgy at Knutsford Music Festival last summer.
