Sand Paper

(album: Rise And Shine - 2020)

It was all good
In the beginning
You were my
My biggest fan
When I was winning
Just because you don't see me the same in your eyes
Doesn't mean I'm not gold that I lost my shine and
I'm through
With all the pretending
Acting like you ain't
Spinning

Sand paper
Keep wearing me down
'Til I'm just about nothing at all
Heart breaker
Thought we were falling in love
But real love don't take your soul
Try to smooth out my edges
But what you don't get is
I told you that this is who I am
You can't
Change me now or later
Like sand paper
Sand paper

It's not like
I'm some kinda secret
I'm an open book
You just don't wanna read it
Just skip to the back page
Can't go another day
Tryin to make you get what you shoulda gotten anyway
You might've scratched me up good
But I ain't bleeding
Just finally seein
And feelin

Sand paper
Keep wearing me down
'Til I'm just about nothing at all
Heart breaker
Thought we were falling in love
But real love don't take your soul
Try to smooth out my edges
But what you don't get is
I told you that this is who I am
You can't
Change me now or later
Like sand paper
Sand paper

This is the part where I walk away
You ain't gunna
Scrape away what's left of me,
Of me like

Sand paper
Keep wearing me down
'Til I'm just about nothing at all
Heart breaker
Thought we were falling in love
But real love don't take your soul
Try to smooth out my edges
But what you don't get is
I told you that this is who I am
You can't
Change me now or later
Like sand paper
Sand paper
Sand paper
Sand paper
Sand paper
