laid out upon paper
lines shown across
row after row
the pencil that draws each stroke
the hand that pushes the pencil
the person who's reflection drawn down
each stroke of darkness
bringing us closer to the finally
line after line
row after row
laid out upon paper
these words of darkness on paper
these words that stay between the lines
these feelings which fly from paper
words are strung together
a rhythm is set alive
a song is sung for ears
a song to tell the story of that paper
the story of that pencil
the story of that hand
tell the story of that mind
