Penholder Lyrics

Penholder lyrics

I feel your eyes crawling over me

As though I am something more than me

But I don't have anything good enough to say

I did not make myself this way



I'll show you what he did

But I won't take the credit

It's not mine anyway

I just held the pen that day



And I don't deserve this, this time right now

It's not something for which I can take the bow

And I don't deserve this, it wasn't me

I can't take glory for something that I can't be

I don't deserve this



I know what perfection is like

And I cannot stand before its might

And I'm so far from what you think that I must be

I just drown myself in mercy



I'll show you what he did

But I won't take the credit

It's not mine anyway

I just held the pen that day



And I don't deserve this, this time right now

It's not something for which I can take the bow

And I don't deserve this, it wasn't me

I can't take glory for something that I can't be



I don't deserve this, this time right now

It's not something for which I can take the bow

And I don't deserve this

And all the art that I supposedly create

Is simply a faded reflection of something he's already made



And I don't deserve this, this time right now

It's not something for which I can take the bow

And I don't deserve this, it wasn't me

I can't take glory for something that I can't be

I don't deserve this
