Paper and Pen Lyrics

There's a letter in a shoe box in a dresser she keeps locked
But she's never read it all the way through
It was the last one he wrote her, she was sure it was over
From all that he told her in the first line or two
He said times are hard now, got some things left to sort out
And a man and his freedom don't easily part
That's were she stopped reading, her soul was bleeding
So she chose her weapon and went for his heart
With paper and pen she got her last word in
I never loved you was lie she wrote him
He couldn't believe the reply he'd received
What sad tragedy for good love to end
Ah who needs a knife when you can
Take someone's life with paper and pen
Well, they say he went crazy, in just a few days he
Got on the bottle and went out of his mind
To this day, she don't know in the letter that he wrote
He asked for her hand in the very last line
With paper and pen she got her last word in
I never loved you was lie she wrote him
He couldn't believe the reply he'd received
What sad tragedy for good love to end
Ah who needs a knife when you can
Take someone's life with paper and pen
Ah who needs a knife when you can
Take someone's life with paper and pen
