[Verse 1]
The feelings pour out, soul spilling on white
Purging the weight I've carried through night
No judgment, no critique of my past sins and scars
Just open arms waiting, no matter how far
The Paper has saved me, time after time
Held every storm, every tear, every crime
Against my own heart, when the words wouldn't come
Fog in my head, but the blank page was home
[Chorus]
The Paper, the Paper, the Paper was there
Faultless and free, always ready to care
Never selfish, never asking a thing
Just giving itself for the soul I could bring
Bleed every emotion held back for so long
Release what was wrong, let the healing prolong
Thank you... thank you...
My pinstriped white armor, forever strong
[Verse 2]
Times it got dark, thought I'd fade from this place
No one would notice, no light on my face
But the Paper stayed steady, took every despair
Gave voice to the silence, showed someone was there
Secrets laid bare in alphabetical grace
Kept safe on the surface, no judgment, no trace
(Unless some nosy soul peeks in my book)
But that's not on the Paper—it's pure, it's the hook
[Chorus]
The Paper, the Paper, the Paper was there
Faultless and free, always ready to care
Never selfish, never asking a thing
Just giving itself for the soul I could bring
Better the collective, spread knowledge, save lives
Saved this lost soul through the darkest of nights
Thank you... thank you...
Without you, who knows where I'd be tonight
[Bridge/Outro – soft, repeating fade]
Gratitude woke me from writer's block chains
Enlightened by thanks, through the joy and the pain
For all that you've held, for the space you provide
I am forever indebted... my faithful guide
The Paper... the Paper...
Thank you... thank you...
