[Hook]
Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Oh
[Verse 1]
Let's talk about writer's block
Cause when it comes to conversations all I wanna do is talk
But the moment I sit down with pen or keyboard in my hands
Words evade my thoughts with prejudice I'm sure you understand
Well, you shouldn't! And well, neither should I!
Cause I've got a whole lot I wanna say before the day I die
In a world full of beauty, love, brokenness and zeal
Why can't I seem to lyrically express all I see and feel?
Out there, wars wage, hearts change, storms rage
Meanwhile, in my head, I'm still trapped in a cage
Where a schism in my lyricism between perfectionism and my creative vision dictates what I say
Now I sit, watch the blinking cursor and feel uneasy
I know it revels in this song's hypocrisy
Cause apparently, I care more about sounding good than sharing meaning
Oh-oh
[Chorus]
I don't have much time
It's worth more every day
And here I am stuck
With nothing to say
I'm wrapped in arms of love
But I'm no stranger to pain
Yet here I am lost
With nothing to
[Hook]
Say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Oh
[Verse 2]
I'm kinda confused, with what I'm trying to do
How to follow through writing this song for you
Got a million ideas makin' their way through my brain
But I can't find a way to put them onto my page
Climbing a mental ladder into my head's attic
Tryin' to find words that sound good; but not sporadic
Wanna say something meaningful while I'm at it
Writing a song about writing songs is problematic
What am I even trying to say?
Why do I even write these songs anyway?
What's the point of all this? What's the point of life?
Pursuing truth's how I want my lyrics defined
But right now, I don't know if I'm doing that well
What if I'm just writing music to sell
I don't want this to be about money or fame
I pray I'm doing this for more than just my name
Oh-oh
[Chorus]
I don't have much time
It's worth more every day
And here I am stuck
With nothing to say
I'm wrapped in arms of love
But I'm no stranger to pain
Yet here I am lost
With nothing to
[Hook]
Say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Oh
[Bridge]
Every day kids take their lives cause they feel alone
Every day someone gives up cause they're losing hope
And a grieving child wishes they'd picked up the phone
Every day finds another lost soul missing home
But every day also sees a bright sunrise ahead
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay)
Every day children laugh; joyful tears are shed
(Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay)
Every day sees a lonely soul make a new friend
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ayyy)
Every day the Son reclaims lost souls from death
This life is wrought with danger but filled with light
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay)
Even amidst pain, hope brings us out of the night
(Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay)
Faith leads the way and restores our sight
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ayyy)
And at the end of it all, love leads the fight
If even one word of my song can warm a heart
If my voice can draw light from the dark
Then I wanna sing until my breath gives way
Until I've got something worthwhile to
[Hook]
Say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay-ayyy
[Chorus]
(Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay)
I don't have much time
(Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay)
It's worth more every day
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy)
And here I am stuck
With nothing to say
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ay)
I'm wrapped in arms of love
(Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay)
But I'm no stranger to pain
(Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy)
Yet here I am lost
With nothing to
[Hook]
Say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Something to say
Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
Nothing to say-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ee-ay-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay-ee-ay-ay-ayyy
