TGOY | "The Art of Tearing Pages" [Alternative/Emo]

Описание: LYRICS:

​[Verse]
The spine of the book is beginning to crack
There’s no use in trying to glue it all back
I’m holding the ink that we spilled on the floor
And watching the meaning go out of the door
Every chapter we wrote was a beautiful lie
A script for a movie we never could buy
I’m finding the strength in the sound of the rip
Letting the narrative finally slip

[Chorus]
I’m mastering the art of tearing the pages
Breaking the locks on the heart and the cages
Cleaning the mess that we made in the margins
Before all the heavy-set sorrow enlarges
​
[Post-Chorus]
The story is over, the ink is all dry
There’s nothing left here but a long-winded goodbye
​
[Verse]
I’m digging through sentences tucked in the back
Finding the places we fell off the track
The adjectives bled and the verbs wouldn't move
Trapped in a rhythm we never could prove
I’m throwing the fragments away in the bin
Discarding the places where you were within
It’s a violent kind of a quiet release
Finding a way to be finally at peace
​
[Chorus]
I’m mastering the art of tearing the pages
Breaking the locks on the heart and the cages
Cleaning the mess that we made in the margins
Before all the heavy-set sorrow enlarges
​
[Post-Chorus]
The story is over, the ink is all dry
There’s nothing left here but a long-winded goodbye
​
[Bridge]
We’re not a classic, we’re just a mistake
A draft of a promise that neither could take
I’m burning the cover and scattering lead
Leaving the rest of the volume unread

[Chorus]
I’m mastering the art of tearing the pages
Breaking the locks on the heart and the cages
Cleaning the mess that we made in the margins
Before all the heavy-set sorrow enlarges
​
[Outro]
Just a blank sheet where the future can grow
Letting the art of the ending finally show
