White Wall
Canvas of Emotions: Old Man of the Woods Unveils the White Wall
Lyrics
As amiable as possible
Being as friendly and agreeable as possible.
A white wall
Metaphorical reference to a blank canvas or a clean slate.
Write all over me
Inviting someone to make their mark or influence on the speaker.
Though I'm still angry
Despite efforts, the speaker is still harboring anger.
You don't scrape and peel, at least try to see
Encouraging the other person to understand without causing harm.
I once had designs, faded lines
Reflecting on past aspirations that have faded away.
I think you'd like the living room
Suggesting an appealing living space that the other person might enjoy.
Chartreuse green and bright
Describing a vivid and lively color, possibly symbolizing positive experiences.
In the sun, you'd be surprised
Anticipating a positive reaction when exposed to the speaker's true self.
That it was all me too
Claiming authorship or responsibility for the mentioned living space.
A name practically optional
Emphasizing the optional nature of identity or personal labels.
A white wall
Reiteration of the metaphorical white wall, emphasizing emptiness or potential.
Write all over me
Repeating the invitation for the other person to leave their mark.
I'll steep in fury
Expressing immersion in intense anger or resentment.
Hang in the air, but not your memory
Suggesting that the anger lingers but does not affect the speaker's memory of the person.
I once was velvet, plum or violet
Describing a past state of richness or luxury, now faded or lost.
Like royalty and wounds
Metaphorical reference to both regal and wounded aspects of the speaker's past.
I'd lick my blood
Symbolic act of accepting personal pain or consequences.
You would know when you fucked up
Implying that the other person would realize their mistakes through consequences.
That might be good for you
Suggesting that facing consequences could be beneficial for personal growth.
I'll strip it down
Expressing vulnerability and a willingness to be emotionally exposed.
I can't hurt now
Claiming an inability to cause harm or feel pain currently.
I'm a white wall
Reiteration of the metaphorical white wall, emphasizing emptiness or potential.
Write all over me
Repeating the invitation for the other person to leave their mark.
