[Verse 1]
I know I should have stopped it
Any other day I'd know better
But now I'm laid out on the floor
I know I kinda dropped it
Should have written it down in a letter
But now there's one foot out the door

[Chorus 1]
All the words in disarray
Lost in translation
Errors just replay

[Verse 2]
I didn't know it was like that
Left field, way off of center
And now there's just one great divide
There's no doubt, wait, strike that
All conversation is splintered
Oh well, oh hell, at least I tried

[Chorus 2]
All the thoughts I can't relay
Have no explanation
Defects just display
[Bridge]
Spell-checked, streamlined, clarified
Cut, copied, pasted, and erased it
But I replaced it
Outlined, researched, summarized
Paraphrased, arranged, and then deleted
Now I'm defeated

[Chorus 3]
Good intentions gone astray
Locked in frustration
Plot lines in decay
