I used to write lines that made you smile, But haven’t found one in quite a while. The guitar’s here, but it feels so wrong, I’ve lost the heart to finish a song. Stare at the page, but the ink won’t run, I’m searchin’ for words, but findin' none. [Chorus] I’ve always leaned on the songs I write, To pull us back when things don't seem right, But now my voice feels too worn to try, And every note makes me wanna cry. I’ve tried to write this a thousand times, But I still can’t seem to make it rhyme, And so I sit here feeling numb, Because tonight, the words won’t come. [Verse 2] There were nights when you sang along, You’d smile and say it's the perfect song. Now silence cuts like a broken string, And I no longer know what to sing. I’ve turned each memory inside out, But none of them calm this fear and doubt. If love is here, I can’t make it show, I’m runnin’ out of ways to let you know. [Chorus] I’ve always leaned on the songs I write, To pull us back when things don't seem right, But now my voice feels too worn to try, And every note makes me wanna cry. I’ve tried to write this a thousand times, But I still can’t seem to make it rhyme, And so I sit here feeling numb, Because tonight, the words won’t come. [Bridge] If one last verse could change your mind, I’d write it down to keep you mine, But every thought just slips away, And I don’t know what else to say. [Chorus] I’ve always leaned on the songs I write, To pull us back when things don't seem right, But now my voice feels too worn to try, And every note makes me wanna cry. I’ve tried to write this a thousand times, But I still can’t seem to make it rhyme, And so I sit here feeling numb, Because tonight, the words won’t come. [Instrumental Outro]
