[Verse 1]
Mind is blank
Don’t know no shit
Been smacked about
And disregarded
I got my truth
Sittin’ in my chest
But when I reach for words
They just won’t rest
[Pre-Chorus]
I bite my tongue
Till it hurts my jaw
I got a storm inside
But I can’t draw it out
You keep askin’ me
Why I go so still
Baby, it’s hard to speak
When the hurt is real
[Chorus]
Blank page, blank page
Still I know my truth (know my truth)
Blank page, blank page
That’s the only proof (only proof)
I can’t say it clean
But it cuts so deep
Blank page, blank page
Still it lives in me
[Verse 2]
I been talked over
Like a beat-up door
Left in the corner
Wantin’ somethin’ more
They took my quiet
For a broken heart
But I’m not empty, baby
I’m just torn apart
[Pre-Chorus]
I bite my tongue
Till it tastes like rust
I got a name for pain
And a fist full of dust
You keep askin’ me
Why I hold it in
Baby, I’m learnin’ slow
How to let it in
[Chorus]
Blank page, blank page
Still I know my truth (know my truth)
Blank page, blank page
That’s the only proof (only proof)
I can’t say it clean
But it cuts so deep
Blank page, blank page
Still it lives in me
[Bridge]
So I hum real low
When the words won’t come
I let the hurt ring out
Like an old church drum
If I can’t tell it straight
I’ll sing it rough
Truth don’t need to shine
Truth just needs enough
[Chorus]
Blank page, blank page
Still I know my truth (know my truth)
Blank page, blank page
That’s the only proof (only proof)
I can’t say it clean
But it cuts so deep
Blank page, blank page
Still it lives in me
