Lyrics
0:10These are the words but not the truth
0:14God bless them all when they speak to you
0:18But that's alright
0:21On an empty stage
0:24Sing out when
0:27There's no other way
0:36Come drift the town where secrets lie
0:40Where friends and neighbours keep drifting by
0:44But that's alright
0:47You're here to stay
0:50Sing out tonight
0:53The empty page
1:02I always thought I'd see
1:06Your name in flashing light
1:10You did it all for free girl
1:14And freely ripped the night
1:18You're free to fight
1:24These are the words but not the truth
1:28God bless them all when they speak to you
1:32But that's alright
1:35You're here to stay
1:38Sing out tonight
1:41The empty page
1:50Do you remember the time
1:54When you were new in town
1:58You smashed your head in the mirror baby
2:02And kissed the frozen ground
2:07Yr ripped up sound
3:34The empty page has wasted down
3:42The empty page is ripped
3:50The empty page will waste this town
3:57The empty page has slipped
These are the words but not the truth God bless them all when they speak to you But that's alright On an empty stage Sing out when There's no other way Come drift the town where secrets lie Where friends and neighbours keep drifting by But that's alright You're here to stay Sing out tonight The empty page I always thought I'd see Your name in flashing light You did it all for free girl And freely ripped the night You're free to fight These are the words but not the truth God bless them all when they speak to you But that's alright You're here to stay Sing out tonight The empty page Do you remember the time When you were new in town You smashed your head in the mirror baby And kissed the frozen ground Yr ripped up sound The empty page has wasted down The empty page is ripped The empty page will waste this town The empty page has slipped
