Paper Sacks

Paper Sacks

Tear stained prayers
The same highway talk
The same highway drive 

You made a friend about three years back 
He takes the pain away 
Only to bring it back 
You can find him anywhere 
Wrapped in a brown paper sack 

I lie in bed and watch as the street lights glare 
I feel a cold rush of air 
Like all the love that's tossed away 

Some would call the past three months a blur 
But I still recall every word 
I remember everything you said 
And all the promises that are now dead

I had always thought that love was enough 
You've had it but now you've given 
up 
I warn you there are no signs 
No bold written headlines 

I used to be scared to love 
How easy it is to fall off 
You had given me doubts I never had before 
I've never been the one to shut loves door 

I'm thankful I have him 
For he's been the one thing helping me to start over again 

You made a friend about three years back 
He takes the pain away 
Only to bring it back 
You can find him anywhere 
Wrapped in a brown paper sack 

But he never helped you 
He caused things you'll never get through

I would listen through sheetrock
Clenching my fists, in a staring contest with the clock.
