lyrics
Did you write it in pencil, just to let it go
Erase all the loneliness, it was starting to overflow
It seeped in to the good times, it got under your skin
Filled up all the spaces you'd left
For the good times that might have been
I'm calling you out, calling you out
You gotta leave it on the page
I'm calling you out, calling you out
I've gotta reach you some way
When did I lose you, was it a slow decline
Starting out with the drugs and the whiskey
And ending with compromise
I'm calling you out, calling you out
You gotta leave it on the page
I'm calling you out, calling you out
I've gotta reach you some way
Did you write it in pencil, just to let it go
Write it down and then tear it up and then move on
I'm calling you out, calling you out
You gotta leave it on the page
I'm calling you out, calling you out
I've gotta reach you some way
