Words don't seem to come so easy
When I need them oh so badly
Here's to playing tug of war with my vocal chords

Maybe I can give this another
Shot or sing about a broken
Heart, or imitate the way it feels

If this is happening for real

This distance seems closer

When you shove it in my face
This moment has left me with nothing else to say
I'm losing my interest with these empty pages

They're torn, they have frayed edges
This dusty book
Is bothered by my rusty eye and I can't see

No, I can't breathe
Put me on the next page outta here
To live forever on this paper

Capture this void and fill it with the frenzy in my voice

Killing time by drawing faces that stare back at me from the margins

In a sea of 8 and a half by elevens
I'm drowning in...
Treading through run on sentences

And sinking into empty text
I'll swallow the salt
And spit a few dry words out


This distance seems closer
When you shove it in my face

This moment has left me with nothing else to say
I'm losing my interest with these empty pages
They're torn, they have frayed edges

This dusty book
Is bothered by my rusty eye and I can't see
No, I can't breathe

Put me on the next page outta here
To live forever on this paper
Capture this void and fill it with the frenzy in my voice


No matter what I say, no matter what I write here,
I'm sick of always looking at this page with a blank stare

You never seem to know, and they never seem to tell you
Words don't always come as easily as you might want them to


Throw this paper into fire and take me with it
Just take me with it
Throw this paper into fire, into fire, yeah

Throw this paper into fire, into this fire
Throw this paper into fire and throw me with it
Just throw me with it
