These are the words But not the truth God bless them all When they speak to you But that's alright On an empty stage Sing out when There's no other way Come drift the town where secrets lie Where friends and neighbours keep drifting by But that's alright You're here to stay Sing out tonight The empty page I always thought I'd see Your name in flashing light You did it all for free, girl And freely ripped the night You're free to fight These are the words But not the truth God bless them all When they speak to you But that's alright You're here to stay Sing out tonight The empty page Do you remember the time When you were new in town You smashed your head in the mirror, baby And kissed the frozen ground Yr ripped up sound The empty page has wasted down The empty page is ripped The empty page will waste this town The empty page has slipped ----------- lyrics: Thurston Moore Sonic Youth - MURRAY STREET (2002)
