Blank Page

There's a blank page in front of me, it's waiting for a song
 But my words have been buried for far too long
 There's so much inside me that you've never heard
 But I feel so afraid to put those thoughts in words
 On the surface, it seems our lives are all just the same
 Then how is it that you smile, while I feel pain?
 Did I give to you or did you take away what was mine?
 How could you move on and leave me standing still in time?
 My mama said you'd better keep quiet
 If you don't have anything good to say
 But mama I wish I could tell you how
 She broke my heart and I had to push her away
 I wish I had known
 That she would be gone
 I wish I'd read the signs
 She walked on ahead
 I'm alone in my bed
 With tears in my eyes
 I still remember the day when I knew you were gone
 Begged for fifteen minutes so I could know what I did wrong
 You left me hanging on the other end of the line
 Can't believe it ended like this after all this time
 My mama said you'd better keep quiet
 If you don't have anything good to say
 But mama I wish I could tell you how
 She broke my heart and I had to push her away
 I wish I had known
 That she would be gone
 I wish I'd read the signs
 She walked on ahead
 I'm alone in my bed
 With tears in my eyes
