[Verse 1: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
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
[Pre-Chorus: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
This distance seems closer
When you shove it in my face
This moment’s left me
With nothing else to say
I'm losing my interest
With these empty pages
They're torn, they have frayed edges
[Chorus: Sonny Moore]
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
[Verse 2: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
Killing time by drawing faces
That stare back at me from the margins
In a sea of eight and a half by elevens
I'm drowning in
Treading through run-on sentences
And sinking into empty text
I'll swallow the salt
Then spit a few dry words out
[Pre-Chorus: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
This distance seems closer
When you shove it in my face
This moment’s left me
With nothing else to say
I'm losing my interest
With these empty pages
They're torn, they have frayed edges
[Chorus: Sonny Moore]
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
[Bridge: Matt Good]
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
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
[Outro: Sonny Moore]
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
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
[Pre-Chorus: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
This distance seems closer
When you shove it in my face
This moment’s left me
With nothing else to say
I'm losing my interest
With these empty pages
They're torn, they have frayed edges
[Chorus: Sonny Moore]
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
[Verse 2: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
Killing time by drawing faces
That stare back at me from the margins
In a sea of eight and a half by elevens
I'm drowning in
Treading through run-on sentences
And sinking into empty text
I'll swallow the salt
Then spit a few dry words out
[Pre-Chorus: Sonny Moore & Matt Good]
This distance seems closer
When you shove it in my face
This moment’s left me
With nothing else to say
I'm losing my interest
With these empty pages
They're torn, they have frayed edges
[Chorus: Sonny Moore]
This dusty book
