Blank Tapes Lyrics - From Indian Lakes

You used to come alive. 

In the darkness, you held a light. 

In the basement, you held on tight. 

You would watch them night after night. 

You'd take 'em out and you'd dust 'em off 

Are you the star you meant to watch? 

Are they the faces you used to know? 

Are we ok, are you all alone? 

(Are we ok?) 

They used to hold you up, 

float over everyone. 

You had a warm bed you never saw. 

Are we ok? Will you sleep it off? 

And now we're walking in a blank space, 

but we can't shake ourselves awake. 

(and now it feels ok) 

We try to fill our hearts with blank tapes, 

and we tape over everything. 

(and now it feels ok)
