Paint my story

I am just a blank canvas

Will you paint a story on my soul

Colour my tears bright red

For they have forever bled

Paint my eyes milky white

They’ve been deserted in plight

I am just a blank canvas

Will you paint a story on my soul

Turn my broken heart to black

For it is filled with grief cracks

Colour my thoughts deep blue

As sadness is all that i knew

I am just a blank canvas

Will you paint a story on my soul

Don’t paint my soul with crimson red

For this love colour I truly dread

I dont want the happy colour of yellow

As my happiness is always so shallow

I am just a blank canvas

Will you paint a story on my soul

If you paint my emotions in indigo

You’ll then know my soul is in inferno

I wish i am once coloured in green

For i want to feel peaceful and serene

I am just a blank canvas

Will you paint a story on my soul
