Brush Strokes

Sorry, I think I dropped a pen Is it yours? Maybe I've even dropped a couple more Been tryina carry all of 'em Yea they are? Thought so cause I thought I'd seen 'em before You drew lighter paintings Last time that we past Reflections of meaning Through light and strong contrast But now you just draw And draw it way too fast I can't follow And neither can you Look You show me your canvas Your face says it's art but all I see is stains Wish I could read again Not just words In numbing silence I'm scratching my paint You drew lighter paintings Last time that we past Reflections of meanings Through light and strong contrast But now you just draw And draw it way too fast I can't follow And neither can you I won't draw fairy tales On the journey of an independent Not like I used to years ago Put my brushes back in place Into cases that I call my own Now it's my sketches I follow And not yours that I fill in I love the colours You bring into my palette Never seen such shades of dark regret Or the brightest paint I've ever wanted to get Can't tell if I'll use 'em again But promise I won't forget You drew lighter paintings Last time that we past Reflections of meanings Through light and strong contrast You drew lighter paintings Last time that we past Reflections of meanings Through light and strong contrast But now you just draw And draw it way too fast I can't follow And neither can you
