I've been painting for a long time
Retouching, crumbling it up
Giving it a new shade
Blue replacing the red
Waves replacing the wind
Patching it up a bit in the edges
A stroke here and a stroke there
Trying to unmix the sky
Though i know
Somethings can't be unmixed
Nor can be remixed
Retouching again,  crumbling it off
And there you are 
Telling me,  i am not the painter
Telling me i am the canvas
Should've told this a little earlier
I lost a lot of crumbled up skies
Lost a whole ray of colours
Lost all the worn out brush ends
And worst of it all
I lost a lot of 'me'
Trying to paint
When i was really the canvas
