CG5
Empty Pages
[Intro: Winks]
(Uh)

[Verse 1: Winks]
Which side do I appoint as enemy? What's truth and what’s a lie? (Ah-oh)
Maybe I comply with my own trust, with my own mind, I'm my own ally (Ah-oh)
People hide their lies, they hide the truth behind a smile and two eyes
I'll try convincing myself now as I write, no, I’m not like them, I'm not the bad guy

[Pre-Chorus: Winks]
I close my eyes and my thoughts scatter all around throughout my mind (Close my eyes)
Do you hear them too? Is it me, or is it you? (Oh-oh-oh)
Deceits and shattered loving prove that loyalty is nothing

[Chorus: Winks & CG5]
Thousand empty pages filled with a memory that's faded
Ink bеgins to splatter, voices say it doesn't mattеr, oh (Doesn't matter)
Was I the one who— am I the one who became the one who I've spent my life running from?
Memories, tragedies, guilty pleads in my book that bleeds (Oh-oh-oh)
Do not read (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Verse 2: CG5 & Winks]
Don't ask why you deny the fact that you enact these chains you've strapped onto your life (Ah)
Allies can’t rely on something or someone who’s living a pure lie (Ah)

[Pre-Chorus: CG5 & Winks]
Strings tied (Strings tied, oh-oh-oh-oh), pages signed with your own quill, have you instilled this shrill in your mind?
Can't hear it, must be you, your mind’s being used (Oh-oh)
Through red and green, can they see all you've ever known is nothing?
[Chorus: CG5, Winks, CG5 & Winks]
Thousand empty pages filled with a memory that's faded (Oh-oh-oh)
Ink begins to splatter, close your eyes, it doesn't matter, oh
Were you the one who— are you the one who became the one who you’ve spent your life running from?
Memories, tragedies, guilty pleads in your book that bleeds
Do not read

[Bridge: CG5 & Winks]
Eccedentesiast, if you gain a favor, take it
Never give one your trust
(I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know)
Leave no trace of what you've done
(I don't wanna remember anymore)
Never reminisce or you'll lose everything you've earned
(Ninety-five, ninety-six)
(A hundred, thousand, million)
Never give one your trust
(My curiosity got the best of me)
Tell no one of what you've done
(And now, there are ninety-three)
Ninety three (There's ninety-three reasons)
You should be— (I should be—)

[Break: CG5 & Winks]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro: Winks, CG5, Winks & CG5]
I was the one who— I am the one who became the one who
(You were the one who— you are the one who became the one who)
I've spent my life running from!
(You've spent your life running from!)
Memories, tragedies, guilty pleads
In my book that bleeds (In your book that bleeds)
Do not read (Ah-ah-ooh-ooh-ooh)
