johnny cypher - empty pages lyrics

[verse 1]
only had a one for two with my head in the water
caught a round, i put it to bed, did as a drummer but out of my head
i moved on, life was mine
but what am i thinking? where am i going? h#ll, i’m almost out of time
this freedom was lonely, i took a drink just to throw it up
i wiped my tears on my sleeve but now i roll ‘em up
to page one, open my book and i see these empty pages
empty faces, takes me ages, figure how i’m gonna play this
well i know this much — i’ve been down lately
and i’ve been feeling like you’re gonna come around to face me
and that’s not gonna happen so i’ve made my peace with that
and now i pick up my pen and i try to let go of the fact
these mysteries and dreams are my speciality
we’re rapping so i write these words for me and you, now let me take you back three years, it was a disgrace
same conversations contracted of a greater trace of what i said and what i meant, it all started to waste
like mains from an air vent, i just misplaced the race that i made in the first place, waiting for you to embrace
because you showed me a menu and all i got was a taste
this first girl, she caught my heart and taught me nothing
said that i would never feel a part of something as strong as it was i’m feeling
i’m losing my game in that false meaning
getting to a point that after that could [?] place dreaming
my productivity, it hit the roof and [?], helped me think, finding the link
i started washing these ideas down the time sink so let your [?]
and always keep the other two in sync at the right brink
an elaboration of collaboration to dispute or dilute our destination
minds are wasting, times are wasting
getting comfortable [?], i hear a beat in a lone world
then i met you and for me it was the proof i needed
proof that i could still feel those b#tterflies, proof that i wasn’t just as cold as ice
and it was proof i couldn’t tell lies if it meant bringing one single tear to those beautiful eyes so
the march begins across paths we [?] paths
they amplify the motions, send me down the wrong path
and i was happy, d#mn i was happy
no one could touch me, no one, you made me invincible, but i lost [?]

[chorus]
these empty pages
state that we’re broken at the seams
so i close my eyes
take me to the land of the dreams

[verse 2]
okay, so maybe i already covered the topic
but it isn’t the end, in fact it’s f#cking far from it
so learn from it until i run out of words, i won’t stop it
‘cause she’s going through my mind
i’m gonna have to make it rain, no
not because affections still exist, [?] of politics
concerning whether or not i got the right to diss this other guy who’s making her laugh and smile
i’m over her, don’t worry, i’m not in denial
but a wise man recognizes time is short lived
and if something’s on your mind, you’ve got to export it
so one way of doing that is to come here and expose it
goes to show that even if you say you’re sorry and it was a mistake to kiss me, it wasn’t ‘cause it convinced me that even if you and i must go our separate ways, i hope you understand to me it was my sanity you saved
you didn’t keep me enslaved for any amount of time
you didn’t tell lies or try to step on my pride
and for that i show gratitude, what a h#ll of an attitude
yeah honestly, from real deep down within
i hope you notice the line separating us is paper thin
because i’m happy for you and yes i’m jealous of him but that doesn’t matter, this page of our story’s ripped up and bent
now i’ve got to remember if it was worth it in the end, was it?
takes two to tango, but someone has to start it
and i know that sounds a little bit of what [?] to let her tell
this girl that i’m a quitter, get this sh#t on twitter and [?] already express this side
course it didn’t [?] of an invested mind
so let me wrap this up [?] mental grave bullsh#t
[?] onlookers and truly sharper [?] in the toolshed
a private message going out to you and everyone else
the people who think they know me when i don’t know myself
i have bordered the sh#lls and so i’m pinking on stage
i’m declaring my love lost from the cover to the first page
this book was empty to everyone’s eyes but mine
a shame the thing that was growing inside me was a beat and a bit more time
and all i ever wanted to do was just hear your laughter
you’re just a page this time, it’s funny, you could’ve been a chapter
but truthfully the only reason i even wrote this was to explore and note this emotional reaction but know this
you’re a real class lass so although we split fast, life is a race and you’re not last
and maybe we should have stopped it in december
but from what i remember, you’re more than appetite and temper
