Wasting Paper

I’ve spent days wasting paper 
Just trying to write a simple song
Describing the way I feel
Knowing that she’s long gone
I don’t lose my words often 
But some say I’m better off 
Just take this time to heal
And clear your head 
But that is all too simple 
Cause you don’t have to sit at home 
While staring at the paper and the lead
Outside the sun is shining 
Am I doing something wrong
I’ve got my buried emotion 
With all that has been going on
I figured this’ll be the day 
Where I’ll think of something 
Cause the walls are getting taller
And my heart is sinking low 
I can’t help but wonder 
What did I do that was so wrong
I know I’ve got expectations 
Did I set the bar too high 
I’m told keep on waiting 
And that she’ll come around
But here I am 
Still wasting paper
