Paper Lady - Absentee Lyrics

From far away I see you clearly
But can you say the same to me
I know you're not inclined to listen to me
But we're running out of time

Is it worth it
Am I worthy
Is it worth it
Am I worthy

You're taking more than you give me
But who can blame the absentee
It means more than it's meant to
Would things be different if you knew
Would words mess with the stillness
I don't wanna ruin this

You say things that make me wonder
If you could ever open your mind
At this point we're at an impasse
I know now i've gotta lead
Hope that you don't overlook this
I need to lay it bear
If I could hear your thoughts in patterns
Maybe then there'd be no need

Is it worth it
Am I worthy
Is it worth it
Am I worthy

You're taking more than you give me
But who can blame the absentee
It means more than it's meant to
Would things be different if you knew
Would words mess with the stillness
I don't wanna ruin this
