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
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
wish I was blank
I wish I was blank
I wish I could think
I wish I was blank

I'd write a letter to you
And there'd be nothing to it
I wouldn't hem and haw
On just how to start it

I wish I was blank
I wish I was blank
I wish I could think
I wish I was blank

I wish I'd stand up straight
I wish I said things different
I wish I'd said nothing
Thing would be so perfect
I wish myself to keep
I pray myself to sleep
I wish myself away
I wish I was blank
