Blank Pages Lyrics by Dr. Awkward

Blank Pages

0

[verse 1]
I feel this isn’t who I’m supposed to be
According to expectations of those close to me
This isn’t how I make the most of me
The man in the mirror is nothing but the ghost of me
Nine to five, working day to day trying to make it
Wake up; swallow down a pill, just so I can take it
Feeling sorry for myself, like it’s not fair
I’m all lost; swear my life is going nowhere
Go to college, get a wife and live the bored life
Twenty-four and divorced is what it’s more like
My life is ready for some changes
I see the future is amongst these blank pages
[Chorus x2]
Open cage
Open wings
Open eyes to anything
Sun kissed face, I can finally breathe
I’m breaking free, breaking free of who I’m supposed to be
[verse 2]
Nobody has it easy, so I’ve come to find
So I left that grass is greener attitude behind
Single mother raised, a single father now
Doing my best since I had no one who could model how
A young man, no skill, less ambition
But a keen eye at observing present human condition
Lost in the world without an atlas, a g.p.s
Too bad there’s no road map to happiness
That’s because it’s not a destination
Don’t have to search for happiness; it’s born of your creation
It’s not profound, don’t let it pull you down or drown you
It’s usually as simple as enjoying what’s around you
Do what you love and the money will come, instead
Do what you love ‘cause you love to have fun
Life without joy is a life that’s been wasted
Don’t let those be your blank pages
[Chorus x2]
Open cage
Open wings
Open eyes to anything
Sun kissed face, I can finally breath
I’m breaking free, breaking free of who I’m supposed to be
[verse 3]
I don’t dream because I never sleep
Working every day, this is how I eat
Take what you want; this life is for the livin’
It won’t be handed to you
Only death is given
Shake it off, shake it off
Self-pitying is useless
There’s no end game in your excuse
If you want something, it is you who must create it
I look into these blank pages
(I look into these blank pages x4)
I told my son I would make him proud
So every single show, I’m there to lay it out
Keep it simple, no regrets
Fuck giving up, this show ain’t over yet
And you can do it too, but do it right
And never rest, keep looking day and night
And if you want something so bad that you can almost taste it
Those could be your blank pages
[Chorus]
Open cage
Open wings
Open eyes to anything
Sun kissed face, I can finally breath
I’m breaking free, breaking free of who I’m supposed to be
[epilogue]
Open cage
Open wings
Open eyes to anything
Sun kissed face, I can finally breath
I'm breaking free of who I'm supposed to be
