| Blank page is all the rage,
|
| Never meant to say anything.
|
| In bed
|
| I was half dead,
|
| Tired of dreaming of rest.
|
| Got dressed,
|
| Drove the state line,
|
| Looking for you at the five and dime.
|
| Stop sign
|
| Told me to stay at home,
|
| Told me you were not alone.
|
| Blank page was all the rage,
|
| Never meant to hurt anyone.
|
| In bed
|
| I was half dead,
|
| Tired of dreaming of rest.
|
| You haven’t changed,
|
| You’re still the same,
|
| May you rise as you fall.
|
| You were easy,
|
| You are forgotten,
|
| You are the ways of my mistakes.
|
| I catch the rainfall
|
| Through the leaking roof,
|
| That you had left behind.
|
| You remind me
|
| Of that leak in my soul…
|
| The rain falls
|
| My friends call
|
| Leaking rain on the phone…
|
| Take a day — palnt some trees,
|
| May they shade you from me,
|
| May your children play beneath.
|
| Blank page was all the rage,
|
| Never meant to say anything.
|
| In bed
|
| I was half dead,
|
| Tired of dreaming of rest.
|
| Got dressed,
|
| Drove the state line,
|
| Looking for you at the five and dime,
|
| But there I was picking pieces up.
|
| You are a ghost
|
| Of my indecision,
|
| No more little girl… |
