Crumpled Piece of Paper

Like a crumpled piece of paper
I can be very hard to read
You have to look really hard
To see what's underneath.

Like a crumpled piece of paper
That's been abandoned or thrown away
Like a crumpled piece of paper,
Will I last another day?

Like a crumpled piece of paper,
Useless and discarded.
Like a crumpled piece of paper,
All alone and unguarded.

Like a crumpled piece of paper,
Getting torn up and stepped on
Like a crumpled piece of paper
No one will notice when I'm gone.

Like a crumpled piece of paper,
Getting blown right out of sight
Like a crumpled piece of paper
I'll give up without a fight.
