Starbound-03 - Cardboard Box

There’s papers on the floor
Like scattered consequence
I can’t hope to answer for
Your pages call it out
Still hoping for some recompense
I’m standing at your door
I call your name
Screaming through my shame
And wavering again
I’m stuck outside
With nowhere to hide
You’re in flames again
These words that I can’t say
Like ashes fall to the ground
But I just let them lay
Was it the only time
or did I take it down?
I packed it all away
I call your name
Screaming through my shame
And wavering again
I’m stuck outside
With nowhere to hide
You’re in flames again
Will you put my words away
And never look again?
Will you throw them over
The edge again?
I can’t keep them
Inside anymore
But I know where they can go
Put them in your cardboard box
And throw them down below
There’s papers on the floor
Like failures and regrets
I can’t hope to count for
With your papers all away
You’re swallowing the pain
I’m standing at your door
I call your name
Screaming through my shame
And wavering again
I’m stuck outside
With nowhere to hide
You’re in flames again
Will you put my words away
And never look again?
Will you throw them over
The edge again?
I can’t keep them
Inside anymore
But I know where they can go
Put them in your cardboard box
And throw them down below
Will you put my words away
And never look again?
Will you throw them over
The edge again?
I can’t keep them
Inside anymore
But I know where they can go
Put them in your cardboard box
And throw them down below
