Blacken the Page

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The truth is loose, the truth is loose And it's coming after you Your reckless youth, it's residue It's catching up with you [Verse 2] This restlessness, this restlessness Like you're at war with yourself And your skin's on back to front And you don't know what you want [Verse 3] Behold in me, behold in me A bad example of free thought Through endless nights I am a witness Frescoes of the skull [Chorus] Born over a grave We count down the days And fill in the space To blacken the page I want it erased Blacken the page I want it erased Blacken the page [Verse 4] A way with words, a way with words You can't switch off from yourself Shut it off, shut if off Let the silence sing itself [Verse 5] I want this over This rubbish I'm sure you feel the same In a moment I'll be finished And all else will remain [Chorus] Born over a grave We count down the days And fill in the space To blacken the page I want it erased Blacken the page I want it erased Blacken the page
