The Page Stays Blank

[Verse 1]
Some nights I want to wreck the frame
Quit answering to who I became
Watch every careful little thing come loose
And wake up with nothing left to prove

[Pre-Chorus]
A blank page pulls like open air
No old version waiting there

[Chorus]
I could let it all come down
Hear the quiet take this town
Start again with nothing named
But I know the hurt beyond my own
And I can’t leave them holding stone
So I stay, though the wild idea remains

[Verse 2]
I picture doors I never tried
A clean horizon on the other side
Then someone laughs and asks if I’m okay
And all that leaving slips away

[Final Chorus]
I could let it all come down
Hear the quiet take this town
Start again with nothing named
But I know the hurt beyond my own
And I can’t leave them holding stone
So I stay, and let the urge pass through
I stay because I care for you

[Outro]
The page stays blank tonight
I leave the morning room to write
