"Page is a song about the emotional state you experience after a separation. The longing part you try to overcome, try to fight. With the music video we want to ask what we actually long for in that state. The person themselves? The connection you had? Yourself in that state?
Longing for relationships is a fundamental humane thing, so we were more than happy to have been given the opportunity to visualise this. Working with a set of incredible talents we shot the clip over three days on the outskirts of Berlin in various environments. As we wrap up, a sincere thank you extends to everyone who played a part, offered support, and shared their valuable input. Thank you Ed for this amazing song and initiative." - Gordian Schrödter & Conrad Lexow

Page Lyrics:
I’m a half-read story
I was fine on the shelf
Why did you take me down?
As if I needed your help
No prior warning
No one to catch when I fell
Now that you’re not around
I’m not doing so well
Do I look like a monster,
Underneath all my skin?
I wanna cut all this open
Til I’m feeling something
Now I’m tracing the cracks
So I can let the light in
I’m in love with the ghost of you
Better luck next year
There’s nothing left here
Why am I constantly searching feeling unsettled?
Living in hell pretending it’s heaven
Head spin
Maybe I’m destined to be
Always lonely, alone, a loser, pathetic
Maybe tomorrow will be better
But I’m stuck on the page
I’m a half-read story
Better off in the fire
Now I feel like the fool
Haunted by desire
For a moment of glory
I would risk all I am
I look at what we had
And I don’t understand
Do I look like a monster,
Underneath all my skin?
I wanna cut all this open
Til I’m feeling something
Now I’m chasing the cracks
Til I can let the light in
I’m in love with the ghost of you
Better luck next year
There’s nothing left here
Why am I constantly searching feeling unsettled?
Living in hell pretending it’s heaven
Head spin
Maybe I’m destined to be
Always lonely, alone, a loser, pathetic
Maybe tomorrow will be better
But I’m stuck on the page
