She's Just Pages

She's just pages in a book you haven't read
The words you never said but were able
You're the color in a rose that should be red
But you drowned and now you're dead on the kitchen table

You tried too hard, your ambitions were too heavy
The love that was your levee is now broke
You always wanted silence, now the quiet is too plenty
Your nightmares now too many, so you choke
But isn't that just how your life goes?

Well nothing's ever gonna change
It's winter time and you're alone again
Keeping warm by a fire that's burning out
And nothing you could ever say
Or sing or write, now or yesterday
Could ever turn that heart inside you gold
But isn't that just how your life goes?

Sometimes you call just to hear the static speaking
That message repeating that she's not there
The letter inside your drawer only slows the bleeding
You're only happy when you're sleeping, but who cares
And isn't that just how your life goes?

Well nothing's ever gonna change
It's winter time and you're alone again
Keeping warm by a fire that's burning out
And nothing you could ever say
Or sing or write, now or yesterday
Could ever turn that heart inside you gold
But isn't that just how your life goes?
Yeah, isn't that just how your life goes?
