From First to Last - Featuring Some of Your Favorite Words [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

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]
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]
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
Then spit a few dry words out

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

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
