I'm leather bound
Sitting here in your nightstand
A piece of lace, it marks your place
But it ain't moved since God knows when
I got your name etched in my cover
But you don't act like I'm yours
Cuz I just keep getting buried
By the junk inside this drawer
You used to read me every night
'Fore you turned off the bedroom light
But now you're sleeping with your back to me instead
You once found purpose in my verses
That you circled every word in
Have you turned to something else?
Or did something cloud your head?
I was written to be more than a book beside your bed
I'm here if you need more than a book beside your bed
We've been through
So many years together
I've come to know what's in your heart
I only hoped to make you better
A note's still scribbled in my spine
From Christmas day when you were nine
Well, we've grown apart before
But it don't feel the same this time
You used to read me every night
'Fore you turned off the bedroom light
But now you're sleeping with your back to me instead
You once found purpose in my verses
That you circled every word in
Have you turned to something else?
Or did something cloud your head?
I was written to be more than a book beside your bed
I'm here if you need more than a book beside your bed
I fear that I can say the reasons why
You've grown afraid to pick me up
Just know I'm not the bad guy
It's their words; it's not mine
That pushed you far away in time
I hate that when they hurt you
They're hiding behind lines...
That you once read me every night
'Fore you turned off your bedroom light
Until the world made all these doubts fill up your head
I know that some used me to shame you
And I cant say that I blame you
For hiding me in here, and tryin to pretend
That I was never any more than a book beside your bed
I miss when I was more than a book beside your bed
I'm here if you need more than a book beside your bed
Sitting here in your nightstand
A piece of lace, it marks your place
But it ain't moved since God knows when
I got your name etched in my cover
But you don't act like I'm yours
Cuz I just keep getting buried
By the junk inside this drawer
You used to read me every night
'Fore you turned off the bedroom light
But now you're sleeping with your back to me instead
You once found purpose in my verses
That you circled every word in
Have you turned to something else?
Or did something cloud your head?
I was written to be more than a book beside your bed
I'm here if you need more than a book beside your bed
We've been through
So many years together
I've come to know what's in your heart
I only hoped to make you better
A note's still scribbled in my spine
From Christmas day when you were nine
Well, we've grown apart before
But it don't feel the same this time
You used to read me every night
'Fore you turned off the bedroom light
But now you're sleeping with your back to me instead

That I was never any more than a book beside your bed
I miss when I was more than a book beside your bed
I'm here if you need more than a book beside your bed
