Lyrics
Paint me a picture write me a song
Desire for someone to express themselves through art and music
I've been the artist for too long
Feeling stuck in the role of creating, seeking a change
Let me be inspiration I'll be the muse
Willingness to be a source of inspiration if noticed
When I ask to be captured they seem confused
Wishing to be understood and captured, but encountering confusion
And I've never felt so used
Feeling used and not properly acknowledged
'Cause I'm the creator I love to observe
Enjoying observing but longing to be observed
You are the music I write the words
Interdependence in creating art, music, and words
But I yearn to be captured yearn to be seen
Yearning to be understood and noticed
So what do you hear when you look at me?
Questioning how others perceive or understand them
Is it silent?
Questioning if there's silence in perception
Is it violently loud?
Considering if perceptions are overwhelmingly loud
Is there anything?
Doubting the existence of understanding
My ears keep ringing
Feeling overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions
I can't stop singing for you
Continuing to express oneself despite uncertainties
So are you even listening?
Questioning if others truly pay attention
Can I make you a sculptor if I'm the design?
Offering oneself as a subject for creation
Inspire the castles built to be mine
Desiring to inspire monumental creations
Or could you just take a picture of me as I am
Acceptance of self, indifferent to public display
Show the world or don't
Indifference towards public perception
I don't give a damn
Not caring about others' opinions
I want all my essence
Desire for one's essence to be fully recognized
And effervescence
Wanting one's vibrancy to be acknowledged
To be witnessed written down
Yearning to be understood and documented
I wanna be the fire burning bright
Desire to be an inspiration that shines brightly
Inspiring something that's profound
Aspiring to influence something profound
Enough to make a sound
Desire to make a significant impact
Capture every fracture every piece
Wanting every aspect to be acknowledged and accepted
Don't keep me hidden or forbidden
Not wanting to be hidden or restricted
Set me free
Desiring liberation and freedom
Take me and create me for your own
Acceptance of being perceived and created by others
As you perceive me
Acceptance of others' perceptions
How you see me let it be shown
Allowing others' perceptions to be expressed
