Empty Page - Ron Pope

My heart's ablaze

I'm an empty page

You've been sanctified

But will you stay the night

And through a prisoner's bars

I'm reaching out too far

And in the shifting dust

I see I'm out of luck

And on the funeral pyre

No I will not catch fire

And though my insides burn

No I will never learn

And like a common thief

Down at the jury's feet

Yea when my name gets called

I guess I'll walk along

Some day

I'll be free of these chains

That are holding me

Some day

I'll be free of these chains

That are holding me
