Lyrics
Piece of Work
Words and Music by Amber Snider © 2010
Verse: Is there something wrong with this illusion?
My tears they taste real
Is there something more to this conclusion?
My feelings they feel real
Verse: Is there some reason, I can't explain
Why I can't let go?
From a time and a place
It all happened so long ago
Chorus: Won't you paint my canvas brighter than
The watercolors I had back when
They ran together but still defined
The piece of work that I call mine
Verse: I want to be like your balloon
Flying higher than your noon
I want to see the history
Fade into our scenery
Verse: I want to taste a shining start
I want to give you my whole heart
I want to grown from all the pain
Be as fresh and clean and right as rain
Chorus: Won't you paint my canvas brighter than
The watercolors I had back when
They ran together but still defined
The piece of work that I call mine
Chorus: Won't you paint my canvas brighter than
The watercolors I had back when
They ran together but still defined
The piece of work that I call mine
Verse: Is there something wrong with this illusion?
My tears they taste real
Is there something more to this conclusion?
My feelings, they feel real
