Lyrics
You loved me like a book
New from the store
More printed just like me
But I'm the one you asked for specifically
You loved me like a book
Tore off my soft cover
Fell into pages as my prose pulled you under
You never thought some ink
Could make you think so clearly
You swore when you blinked
There were colours so fiercely
You loved me like a book
But I should have seen the signs
Cause when you read me again for the 45th time
You didn't give me the same care as before
You cracked my spine as pages fell to the floor
My words were stolen from my spine
You do it every time yeah
You claim chapters that were mine
And leave me with the empty spaces
Leave me with the empty spaces
Leavin' me with my ripped pages
Leavin' me with my ripped pages
Love story of broken phrases
You loved me like a book
Till I was little more than junk
Taking up room in a box in your trunk
Until you dropped me at the secondhand shop
That threw me in the five cent used lot
Like a book with torn pages
Like the junk that I was
I waited patiently for someone else to take pause
Let their eyes linger
Turn the pages lick their finger
Notice broken chapters
Say I'm better off as cinder
And like a book
I'll stay a part of you
But less and less with every book you read that's new
With every new book you get through
You'll only take the good
And I have less good in me then I should
My words were stolen from my spine
You do it every time yeah
You claim chapters that were mine
And leave me with the empty spaces
Leave me with the empty spaces
Leavin' me with my ripped pages
Leavin' me with my ripped pages
Love story of broken phrases
My words were stolen from my spine
You do it every time yeah
You claim chapters that were mine
And leave me with the empty spaces
Leave me with the empty spaces
Leavin' me with my ripped pages
Leavin' me with my ripped pages
Love story of broken phrases
