Blank Canvas

Story-tellin' animals, truth told in lies

Afflictions from our fictions as our metaphors collide

Well, there are no containers big enough to hold

All the things I feel about you way down in my soul, so

You be the starlight and I'll be your ship

We can go anywhere we want, our story's not written yet

Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift

We can be anything we want, it's a blank canvas

And I'm looking at the world, and it's feeling all messed up

It's hard to find much levity in war and pestilence

But maybe the world isn't broken, it's just tryin' to get born

And the fault lines and the growing pains are ours to explore, so

You be the starlight and I'll be your ship

We can go anywhere we want, our story's not written yet

Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift

And we can be anything we want, it's a blank canvas

So, I'm gatherin' up my friends, I'm gatherin' up my paints

And I'm imaginin' a masterpiece of compassion and grace

And in the labor pains of love, the Mod Podge of time and space

I'm wonderin' if we humans really are what we create, and so

You be the starlight and I'll be your ship

And we can sail anywhere we want, our story's not written yet

Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift

We can be anything we want, it's a blank canvas

You be the starlight and I'll be your ship

And we can go anywhere we want, our story's not written yet

Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift

We can be anything we want, it's a blank canvas
