Pages - Assemblage 23[00:00:00]
I read your mind[00:00:38]
But it wasn't a very interesting read[00:00:42]
The plot was contrived[00:00:48]
And the characters were too consumed by need[00:00:52]
Page by page[00:01:17]
Enduring each predictable turn[00:01:20]
The paper dissolves beneath my fingers[00:01:26]
And the syllables burn[00:01:31]
The fairy tale you sell is a lie[00:01:55]
But I read the truth behind your eyes[00:01:59]
These words just don't ring true[00:02:04]
And tell me all I need to know about you[00:02:08]
Edit and revise[00:02:23]
Until your conscience was cleared[00:02:27]
I tried to read the words that were true[00:02:32]
But the ink had smeared[00:02:37]
Distorted prose[00:02:42]
Penetrating layer by layer[00:02:46]
Scrawled down for all the world to see[00:02:51]
As if anyone would care[00:02:56]
The fairy tale you sell is a lie[00:03:02]
But I read the truth behind your eyes[00:03:06]
These words just don't ring true[00:03:10]
And tell me all I need to know about you[00:03:14]
I read your mind[00:03:44]
Suffered through every last detail[00:03:48]
I watched you try to make sense of your life[00:03:53]
And I watched you fail[00:03:58]
The fairy tale you sell is a lie[00:04:03]
But I read the truth behind your eyes[00:04:08]
These words just don't ring true[00:04:12]
And tell me all I need to know about you[00:04:16]
