Papercuts

(Chorus)

She says she loves me

but she comes and goes when she pleases

when the door shuts

it's like another papercut

and now I'm stuck with a hand full of bandaids

until she comes back around like them ceiling fan blades

claims she loves me

but she cuts me into pieces

when I'm sewed up

here comes another papercut

now I'm stuck with a hand full of bandaids

until she comes back around like them cailing fan blades.....

we met 22 years back

fresh out the womb

now she consumes me,

no room for self these days

and she's so demanding

do this, do that

don't forget to take your medicine

I hate it when her face is invading my head again

the welcome mat reads "please take off your shoes"

but she disregards the statement

I've grown accustomed to bending my beliefs to

satisfy her needs

but I'm fed up

with plugging cuts everytime they bleed

so I dip my pen in the puddle

what a bloody mess its been

trying to end this struggle

but I love her,

she's the reson for the lesions

man I love her

I start bleeding when she's leaving

and every scar on my fingertip is a reminder of

all the lessons learned

on my missions to try to find her but

I'll sit alone until she comes back home

and I'll be waiting by the phone

(phone rings: "Hello?")

(Chorus)

(On the Phone)

She don't live here no more

I heard she's staying down the street with two dead beat

that don't treat her right with two bad ass kids

Guilt and Regret

and I'm willing to bet

my last album (that?) she's wishing she was kissing me

Man the nerve of this bitch

pardon my French

but it's been 10 days

and I'm getting kind of light headed
