Blank Canvas

Ok, this needs a lot of work... but, unedited and just babbled quickly...

Blank Canvas

Too late did I realize
Too late did it sink in
What I had in you, what was standing there
I never let you in

And now you're calling me
You say you've gone away
I never got a chance to write down
All the things I need to say

So here I stand...
marker in my hand, blank canvas surrounding my lonely heart
writing all my thoughts, penning every dream,
scribbling every pain, every tear, every scream

Here I stand...
marker in my hand, tears falling as it all falls apart
writing all my thoughts, penning every dream
scribbling every pain, every tear, every scream

And now I'm calling you
Begging you to stay
There's so much I want to tell you
So much I still need to say

You once healed my lonely heart
Now you're making it break
With just a few simple spoken words
My hope, my heart, my love you take

So here I stand...
marker in my hand, blank canvas surrounding my lonely heart
writing all my thoughts, penning every dream,
scribbling every pain, every tear, every scream

Here I stand...
marker in my hand, tears falling as it all falls apart
writing all my thoughts, penning every dream
scribbling every pain, every tear, every scream

It's all here on this blank canvas
Every memory made
Every memory that will never be

It's all here on this blank canvas
Every word spoken
Every word held deep within me

So here I stand...
marker in my hand, blank canvas surrounding my lonely heart
writing all my thoughts, penning every dream,
scribbling every pain, every tear, every scream

Here I stand...
marker in my hand, tears falling as it all falls apart
writing all my thoughts, penning every dream
scribbling every pain, every tear, every scream
