As a songwriter, I sometimes have thoughts or ideas that wouldn't particularly make a good song. This is the outlet for that stuff...

Boundaries



You color outside of the lines

But there's still the edge of the page

You color over the edge

Onto the floor

But there's still the wall

You color out onto the sidewalk

The driveway

The road

But there's still the curb

The grass line

You color into the field

But there's still

The horizon

You color the sky

The clouds

There's still the atmosphere

You fly into space

And color the earth

The planets

The stars

And all that's in between

There's still

You

You color

Yourself

There's still

The crayon

It's already colored, you say?

Yes

But

Not

By you
