When the words just spilled
When the ink just turned into letters
That's when you know a part of you
Has just been put onto paper
When the pen comes to life
When your hands fall out of control
That's when you know your feelings
Are being put onto paper
When your emotions need release
When no one's there for you
That's when you know your sorrows
Are being put onto paper
And what comes from those lines
Are the things you've been hiding inside
And those papers, they take hold
Of the stories you hide

When the words just spilled
When the ink just turned into letters
That's when you know a part of you
Has just been put onto paper
When the pen comes to life
When your hands fall out of control
That's when you know your feelings
Are being put onto paper
When your emotions need release
When no one's there for you
That's when you know your sorrows
Are being put onto paper
And what comes from those lines
Are the things you've been hiding inside
And those papers, they take hold
Of the stories you hide
