Paper And Pen Poem by Colin Coplin

Paper and pen, trying to write a song again
Paper and pen, Paper and pen

Paper and pen, Trying to write a song again
Paper and pen, Paper and pen

Can't think of anything to say today
Can't think of anything to do
Can't think of anything to play today
Minds gone blank
Leaving me here, just sitting here
Listening to my hair grow

Paper and pen, Paper and pen

And I look towards you
For an inspiration, a word or two
Try as I might I only find / I try but I find
Every road leads me back to these lines

Paper and pen, Paper and pen

Paper and pen, Paper and pen
Trying to write a song again
Paper and pen, Paper and pen

Paper and pen, Piano, guitar
I try but don't get very far
Paper and pen, Piano, guitar

Paper and pen, Paper and pen
Trying to write a song again
Paper and pen, Paper and pen
