- Black Thumbnail Lyrics

Songwriters: Followill, Matthew; Followill, Caleb; Followill, Jared; Followill, Nathan;

My cold, cold, sailor heart says get on your way
I ain't to proud to say but that's how I'm made
I'll be that person 'till my dying day
I try so awful hard, but I can't change

From runways to the road, I ramble alone
This thumbnail sized of a heart is black as coal
Your beauty, it still brings me to my knees
Don't waste a tear on me, it's my disease

Don't leave no smell on me
Don't leave no smell on me
I blow off in your sleep
Don't leave no smell on me

Those preppy boys in blue, they make fun of us
So we take it to the streets 'cause we want to be cussed
But we're not here to make your children bleed
We're here to come around with the tumbleweed

Don't leave no smell on me
Don't leave no smell on me
I blow off in your sleep
Don't leave no smell on me, now get her, go get her

Don't take these boots off me when you're thinking I'm dead
I'll still be running from the demon in my head
I'll be that person 'till my dying day
I try so awful hard, but I can't change

Don't leave no smell on me
Don't leave no smell on me
I blow off in your sleep
Don't leave no smell on me, don't leave no

The words of the song show a person who is fully aware of his imperfections and the difficulties he has to endure, but who, nonetheless, continues to support himself as the society judges. The image of 'don't leave no smell on me' might be interpreted as a wish not to be polluted by outside factors or requirements, thus underlining the point of keeping one's inner truth in the background of hardships.

However, at the same time, the track throws light on the importance of the struggle with identity, the feeling of being lonely and isolated, and also, shows the strength of people during hard times.
