"Paperthin Hymn" is the second single from alternative rock band Anberlin's second album "Never Take Friendship Personal". The song charted at #38 on Modern Rock Chart in the U.S. The song was reportedly inspired by the tragic death of guitarist Joseph Milligan's sister at 29 due to cancer.

Video

The music video shows the band performing in a hospital. At the same time, it shows a series of events where a guy visits his girlfriend as she lies unconscious in a hospital, and they run around the building playing and having fun. However, at the end of the video, it becomes clear that she was simply dreaming. She wakes up, and sees her boyfriend dying next to her in a hospital bed. The video was featured on a Wal-Mart Compilation DVD.
