A Pen And A Piece Of Mind Lyrics - Singles - Houston Calls

A pen and a piece of mind 

Is all that I need to find 

To document this mess of miscommunication 

I'll seal it in a letter 

Hope you can find the time 

To count inconsistencies 

And read things you fail to see 

I really shouldn't spend so much time explaining 

I'm smart enough to know you're not done complaining 

I'll paint just one portrait of us 

And I'll hang it up 

To remind me of sunrise goodbyes 

So we know something we should never try 

I'll paint just one portrait of us 

And I'll tear it down 

To remind me of sunrise goodbyes 

So we know something we should never try 

So I ask myself 

Self, are there more sides to this story 

The corners of this triangle are skewed, and confused 

On one hand 

One date, one chance, the time becomes too boring 

What she made seem like more 

I'm not impressed and not amused 

So a simple goodbye would've sufficed 

But now youve said enough 

Instead you got involved and lashed at me 

Can't you see that 

We're done, we're through 

I'm well enough and I'm quite over you 

So end the calls 

Goodbye, I'll see you on the other side 

I'll paint just one portrait of us 

And I'll hang it up 

To remind me of sunrise goodbyes 

So we know something we should never try 

I'll paint just one portrait of us 

And I'll tear it down 

To remind me of sunrise goodbyes 

So we know something we should never try
