Empty Pages by Tony Winters Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you know the world I've created?
It's a little bit like your own
It might seem exaggerated;
Maybe I can set the tone
With just the words that I am given
I can carve your name in stone
Turn you around, give you a name
And send you home
[Verse 2]
Or you could turn me into a candle
Set my fire upon your mind
I will always be there burning
Like the flame that burns inside
I will flicker in the moonlight
Reflecting shades of fear and light
And I'll remain within your soul
For all your life
[Pre-Chorus]
Does it sound too good to be true
That you are in me
And I am in you?
[Chorus]
It's the fire that makes me stronger
My illusion, my parade
It's the reason I am living
Why I'll never be the same
Can you be there when I need you?
Can you sing with me again
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name?"
[Verse 3]
Does the thought haunt you like a memory
That has just slipped out of sight?
Are we filling empty pages?
Are we color? Are we light?
My own mystery is polished
With the words that you will write
And you'll remain within my soul
For all your life
[Pre-Chorus]
Does it even make a difference to our souls
If we become each other's burden and control?
[Chorus]
It's the fire that makes me stronger
My illusion, my parade
It's the reason I am living
Why I'll never be the same
Can you be there when I need you?
Can you sing with me again
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name?"
[Bridge]
We were never meant to be
Pieces of the whole
We are every living thing;
A universe in a soul
[Chorus]
You're the fire that makes me stronger
My illusion, my parade
You're the reason I am living
Why I'll never be the same
Can you be there when I need you?
Can you sing with me again...
[Chorus]
It's the fire that makes me stronger
My illusion, my parade
It's the reason I am living
While I'll never be the same
Can you be there when I need you?
Can you sing with me again
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name"
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name"
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name"
Do you know the world I've created?
It's a little bit like your own
It might seem exaggerated;
Maybe I can set the tone
With just the words that I am given
I can carve your name in stone
Turn you around, give you a name
And send you home
[Verse 2]
Or you could turn me into a candle
Set my fire upon your mind
I will always be there burning
Like the flame that burns inside
I will flicker in the moonlight
Reflecting shades of fear and light
And I'll remain within your soul
For all your life
[Pre-Chorus]
Does it sound too good to be true
That you are in me
And I am in you?
[Chorus]
It's the fire that makes me stronger
My illusion, my parade
It's the reason I am living
Why I'll never be the same
Can you be there when I need you?
Can you sing with me again
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name?"
[Verse 3]
Does the thought haunt you like a memory
That has just slipped out of sight?

It's the reason I am living
While I'll never be the same
Can you be there when I need you?
Can you sing with me again
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name"
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name"
"I am living in your story
You are written in my name"
