If a writer writes a story and he changes halfway through
whats a storytellers option, whats a man to do
should he keep it safe and boring with the characters he knew
whats a storytellers option, whats a man to do
so I raise my pen and start my story over again
and Ill take my time in writing my next chapter
and erase old lines while singing to the rafters
and Ill be just fine reciting my disaster after you
if a paragraphs a painting and your pigments running thing
and the narrators a narcissist can he begin
to rewrite his life without a broken heart and thicker skin
if the narrators a narcissist can he begin
its always been all right to cry
when stories change from we to I
and lonely tears fall from the sky
when pronouns shift from we to I
and sentences fragment as days go by
on page after page where the ink wont dry
and characters cant seem to tell me why
