"***Papercut***" is a song made by Katrina Martinez. The song was released as the twenty-second track for her album "First day of Hell (After School deluxe)" on September 25th, 2018.

**Background**

During 2015-2017 Katrina would record the song for the "K-12" version of First day of Hell.

It was rerecorded for the standard version of First day of Hell but was scrapped in favor of "Glue Stick".

**Theme**

The song's perspective is from Glue Boy's "inner-voice." The song takes place after a recent abuse incident Glue Boy has gone through. His inner-voice is telling her to not be so torn-up over the event by rehearsing the common phrase "Things could be worse."

**Lyrics**

[Intro]
Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two
It's only just a little papercut (Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut)

[Verse 1]
You could get hit by a car or a train
Or get electrocuted in the rain
You could find a monster in your closet by your sneakers
You could find out the monster's actually your teacher
I have a dad with a friend named Jack
And when Jack's around, mommy gets slapped
And if I tell mommy that she deserves better
I'll have to cover up my bruises with a sweater
(But it could be worse)

[Pre-Chorus]
I know your heart is broken
Feels like your world's been stolen
I promise that it could be worse
(It could be worse)
I know you miss those kisses
There are so many people
that have it worse
(It could be worse)

[Chorus]
Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two
It's only just a little papercut (Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut...)

[Verse 2]
Could've been the baby in the carriage
With beautiful blue-eyed parents
If mommy said she never told a lie
Why the fuck do you've big brown eyes?
You could break a hip, you could lose your teeth
You could swallow a spider in your sleep
You could find a razor in your peanut butter sandwich
If you get cut, you can always get a bandage

[Pre-Chorus]
I know your heart is broken
Feels like your world's been stolen
I promise that it could be worse
(It could be worse)
I know you miss those kisses
There are so many people
that have it worse
(It could be worse)

[Chorus]
Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two

[Breakdown]
(It's only just a little papercut)
(It's only just a little papercut or two)

[Chorus]
Don't be sad, it's really not that bad for you
It's only just a little papercut or two
Don't be sad, you will be laughing someday soon
It's only just a little papercut or two

It's only just a little papercut
