lyrics

Soon I'll reach a point in time
Where you're the last thing on my mind
And when I try to go to bed
My mind won't fill with things I should've said
We've been avoiding this
Do you want to be honest yet?
I swear one day there'll be a time
Where you're the last thing on my mind

I won't be your paperman
I can't stand to lose again
Tried so hard to fill that void
Now I won't be your voice
No, no, no more, no more

In you I thought I could confide
And tell you what was on my mind
Between us those things never stayed
I can't deny no more I felt betrayed
You say I'm missing out?
You ready to be honest now?
No more will I feel so ashamed when I was trying

I won't be your paperman
I can't stand to lose again
Tried so hard to fill that void
Now I won't be your voice

And I know it hurts to see me thrive
But I can't wait while you decide
You never could apologize
That used to keep me up at night
Will I ever understand
Why some things just don't go as planned
You tried to push my words aside
I hope it hurts to see me thrive, yeah

I'll take no more of that
I'll take no more of that
I'll take no more of that

Was it natural to forgive yourself?
Wish it was natural to forgive myself?
Should it be natural to forgive ourselves?
I don't know, no
