about

Some time around December-February 2014
I'm not sure when exactly this was, but I remember it was at my grandmother's house. It's not about what "Empty Paper" is about, unless you hear it that way.

lyrics

I've got no words that I could sing
in this song
All the syllables I know
sound all wrong
There are no good rhymes left,
all that could be said is said
So I'm stuck with this
nonsense instead

I'm all out of melodies
They all sound the same to me
My guitar only laughs
'cause I can't teach my hands
how to play
these words I'm trying to say

How could something this vague
ever be explained?
How could all these emotions be so
simply wrapped and tamed?
Who was the first to say they even
need to be defined?
I'm not against it, it's just that I
can't help wondering why

I'm all out of melodies...

I wasn't supposed to write this song
I wasn't gonna try
'cause I'm not sure of what I think
and I don't want to lie
But it looks like these feelings
made me sing anyway
Maybe some day I'll find

The words I'm trying to say
