i wanna share what's in my heart
but my emotions tear apart
all the words, all the chords
before they have a chance

i try to write them in a book
but all the effort that it took
i'll rip the page
and let the pieces slowly drift away

i can't escape
this feeling and
the shadows that it casts from it's core

i can't find
a new light
to guide me back from the dark

every time i open up
this book of mine
i always find
it's all lost, all gone
no thanks to the endless loop of
apathy, perpetually
tearing up the pages of
my feelings to nothing
and i~~ can't make it stop

a melody
was effortlessly free
but now i only see
an empty diary

throw the notebook to the ground
to join the pages from it's bounds
had enough
this feeling stole the passion right out of me

i lay my head into my hands
i've given it all that I can
how do i
open up and let the words free

oh i reach out
to find a song
to give it a meaning for myself

and i'll take hold
and i'll cling tight
but it always slips away

every time i open up
this book of mine
i always find
it's all lost, all gone
no thanks to the endless loop of
apathy, perpetually
tearing up the pages of
my feelings to nothing
and i~~ can't make it stop

a melody
was effortlessly free
but now i only see
an empty diary

I wanna share what's in my heart
But my emotions tear apart
All the words, all the chords
Before they have a chance
I try to write them in a book
But all the effort that it took
I'll rip the page
And let the pieces slowly drift away

I can't escape
This feeling and
The shadows that it casts from its core
I can't find
A new light
To guide me back from the dark

Every time I open up this book of mine
I always find it's all lost, it's all gone
No thanks to the endless loop of
Apathy, perpetually tearing up the pages of
My feelings to nothing
And I can't make it stop

A melody
Was effortlessly free
But now I only see
An empty diary

Throw the notebook to the ground
To join the pages from its bounds
Had enough
This feeling stole the passion right out of me

I lay my head into my hands
I've given it all that I can
How do I
Open up and let the words free?

Oh, I reach out
To find a song
To give it a meaning for myself

And I'll take hold
And I'll cling tight
But it always slips away

Every time I open up this book of mine
I always find it's all lost, it's all gone
No thanks to the endless loop of
Apathy, perpetually tearing up the pages of
My feelings to nothing
And I can't make it stop

A melody
Was effortlessly free
But now I only see
An empty diary
