I Need Paper Lyrics

I'm feeling fresh like a mowed lawn

Hold on, I'm finally thawing out like the snow's gone

So long, I'm off the line, they'll ask, "How'd he do it?"

Built a scheme, applied the rush, others fumbled, overthrew it

Incomplete, sometimes I feel I'm missing pieces of puzzle

Other times I feel complete but that I'm being too subtle

In my own echo chamber, trying to leave that bubble

Like the dice within Trouble, I'm solo and befuddled

Mind's a puddle, it's tough to tell how deep it is

I was slowly drowning, that's why I had to leave the biz

Life was on a tee, I needed z's, so I changed some shiz

So much time in that life, but I feel estranged from it

Got to take the blame for it, now my back is nearing the wall

Like a tree in the forest, no one hearing my fall

I won't show it, it's not in my nature

Cutting down trees trying to make paper, I'll see you later

Cutting down trees trying to make paper

Hoping that I don't regret it later

All I know is that I need paper

Yeah, I need paper

Yeah, I need paper

Yeah, I need paper

All I know is that I need

I probably should've kept a paper weight. Saved it for a later date

Pivoted hard, took a swing on an unanchored gate

Now I feel like I can't take a break

Sometimes I wonder if I aggravated fate by deciding to aggregate

My meaning with demands of modern living

Finally took the plunge after years of double dipping

Playing chicken with reality, anticipate collision

Even if I hit that point, I'm not flinching

Yeah. Pitching outlandish fiction into the universe

Hope my spin on things is well taken, throw curveballs to the dirt

A nonlinear career arc, sometimes pursuing hurts

But I'm just like the '04 Red Sox, I'll power through the curse

I was ten years old when I knew what I wanted

Never grew out of that, my growth may be stunted

But I'm still stunting, wanting and needing are different subjects

They've been fighting for awhile, I'm preparing for an upset

Yeah, I'm going to come out and say it

This song is about paper products. I'm a big fan

If you're a fan of tissues, if you're a fan of toilet paper

I hope you like it

Cutting down trees trying to make paper

Hoping that I don't regret it later

All I know is that I need paper

Yeah, I need paper

Yeah, I need paper

Yeah, I need paper

All I know is that I need
