Papercuts

Lay awake at night dreaming of an end

Hopeless in failure of her attempts

At connecting the dots in her head

Supperssing the thoughts that could

Let her spend

One more tear from her precipitated eyes

There's no prescription you could fill

To fight the sickness in her mind

Her only cure

Is to be heard

Make a mark pen to paper

Cut it out from inside

Buried there is something that you try to hide

You'll never hear yourself

Untik you speak your mind

Dedicated life to the path we chose

With words we could brighten a thousand souls

But how could we heal a crowd when

We ourselves are bleeding out

We talked last night for the first time in weeks

She said she hasn't found a reason to

Fill the pad with ink I said

I can telk by the look in your eyes

You're about to write the best

Words of your life

Make a mark pen to paper

Cut it out from inside

Buried there is something that you try to hide

You'll never hear yourself

Until you speak your mind

Make a mark pen to paper

Cut it out from inside

Buried there is something that you try to hide

You'll never hear yourself

Until you speak your mind

She said I never thought I'd feel this way

But I know we're gonna

Change the world someday

I said there's never been a doubt in my mind

So place your hand in mine

And together we'll light up the sky

We've just gonna try

Make a mark pen to paper

Cut it out from inside

Buried there is something that you try to hide

You'll never hear yourself

Until you

Speak your mind

She said I never thought I'd feel this way

Make a mark pen to paper

Cut it out from inside

But I know we're gonna

Change the world someday

I said there's never been a doubt in my mind

So place your hand in mine

And together we'll light up the sky

We've just gotta try
