Blank Pages

you're sort of like an open book
but completely full of blank pages
written in invisible ink
look at how hard you make this
too concerned with what people think
and i'd really just like to know
no, i wish that you'd just show me
to see just how far this could go
i'm tired of taking this slowly
so please toss that old paperback
and show me something with a spine
i'll pay with paper or plastic
but i'm sick of sitting in line
when you're ready up at check-out
i'll be waiting with my wallet
can't try to say you lost your phone
'cause it rang when i just called it
is it really alot to ask?
your cheeks are getting red and warm
you're making this no simple task
let's watch the words begin to form
