Canvas
Painting Dreams: Embracing Solitude and Self-Expression
Lyrics
There are many songs about love and heartbreak
There are numerous songs addressing themes of love and heartbreak.
There are people loving others but themselves
Some individuals love others more than they love themselves.
People take selfies but don't paint self portraits
People often take pictures of themselves but neglect to express their true essence through self-portraits.
Afraid of no recognizing what they will have to paint
Fearful of not recognizing the true self that they would have to portray in a self-portrait.
What is worth to paint
Contemplating what is truly significant and deserving of artistic expression.
My mind all over the canvas to find solitude
The artist's thoughts are scattered across the canvas in search of solitude.
Quiet in the rich state of flow
Experiencing a tranquil and rich state of creative flow.
Improvising with the stroke I can feel the truth
Improvising with each brushstroke, feeling the authenticity of the artistic expression.
I am an artist painting new life in the blank space
The artist sees themselves as creating a new life within the empty space.
And it's only me
Emphasizing the solitary nature of the artistic process.
I look the blank space being filled with life
Observing the transformation of the blank space as it becomes infused with life.
As I paint the dreams that wake me up
Painting the dreams that inspire and awaken the artist.
Those colorful bright dreams I used to imagine
Recalling vivid and colorful dreams that were once imagined.
Whenever looking at the ceiling
Reflecting on these dreams while gazing at the ceiling.
I let the hand be guided by my heart
Allowing the hand to be guided by the heart during the creative process.
And let it paint the dreams living inside
Letting the paint on the canvas bring the inner dreams to life.
Brushstroke and drain the paint
Applying brushstrokes and letting the paint flow to witness the canvas come to life.
Just to see the canvas come to life
Experiencing the transformation of the canvas through the act of painting.
The white canvas waiting long for your brush stroke
The white canvas eagerly awaits the artist's brushstroke.
Holding that skin so hopeful with those woody bones
Describing the canvas as hopeful, akin to skin with woody bones.
It says please paint something now, don't let time go on
The canvas implores the artist to paint and not let time pass.
You are an artist painting new life in the blank space
A reaffirmation that the artist is bringing new life into the empty space.
And it's only you
Emphasizing again the solitary nature of the artistic process.
I look the blank space being filled with life
Observing the evolving canvas as it becomes filled with life.
As I paint the dreams that wake me up
Continuing to paint dreams that evoke awakening.
Those colorful bright dreams I used to imagine
Revisiting the colorful and vibrant dreams while looking at the ceiling.
Whenever looking at the ceiling
Allowing the heart to guide the hand in the creative process.
I let the hand be guided by my heart
Letting the canvas become a living representation of inner dreams.
And let it paint the dreams living inside
Applying brushstrokes and allowing the paint to drain, giving life to the canvas.
Brushstroke and drain the paint
Witnessing the canvas come to life through the act of painting.
Just to see the canvas come to life
Reiterating the process of applying brushstrokes to bring the canvas to life.
I can see the canvas come to life
A realization of the canvas coming to life.
All the colors blending with my light
Observing the amalgamation of colors blending with the artist's light.
I can see the light inside of me
Acknowledging the inner light that is visible within the artist.
