I am just a figure on an empty page
I have no meaning

Give me lines and margins
Holes and corners,
To mark my boarders

Give me shading
Raise me from the page
And draw me over
          In greater detail

Take away the lines and boarders
Set me free to find my own way
Give me background
Give me color.
(Musical interlude)

Give me friends and rivals
Give me past and future
Fears and passions,
Faults and feelings

Give me secrets
Give me trials
Give me love and pain and failings
Shady dealings

Give me questions
Give me answers
Give me fan art
Twist me into
What I never wanted
(Musical interlude)

Free me from the light of glory
Take me back to where I came from
Give me peace
Give me release from
         All these stories.
(Short musical interlude)

I am just a figure on an empty page
I hold no meaning.
I wrote this while I was walking my daughter to school this morning and finished it up and typed it when I got home, conceptually it is a video.

the visual part would show a character being drawn, and whatever is mentioned would be added as it goes along. pretty simple. feel free to make the video for me cause sadly I don't have the skills to make it myself but I think it would be awesome, if done well.

I recorded me singing this so you can see the tune and the pacing. I have now posted it on you tube, here's the link:

as always, be warned it is a terrible recording of me singing into a cheep disfuntional webcam. If I get it posted I will add a link here

I love this song :D
I'm probably gonna wander arround the house randomly singing it now...wonder if my family will learn to hate it as much as they hated "I wrote you a letter on a chocolate box" ? :giggle:....I should post that one on you tube, too...

I really really like the lyrics... I think something I find difficult about the tunes of your songs is that they're a little hard to place as far as ... well they're slightly indistinct... I guess I'm just used to really bold tunes but the previous comment is true, it does sound a little like a chant :D I absolutely LOVE the lyrics though... man...
