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 immitate the way it feels
if this was 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 botheres 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 face that stare back at me from the margins
in a sea of 8 and a half by elevens
I'm drowing in...
treading through run on sentences
and sinking into empty text
ill 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 lookin 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
