Blank page

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 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, plant 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
