"Blankest Canvas" lyrics

"Blankest Canvas"

Pull the handle back
Couldn't stay on track
Oh the years they move so fast
Put on my cleanest dirty shirt
Put on a smile but it never works
Open my heart and it always hurts

Touch the fire to know it burns
Wanna know but never learn
You tell me I'm your blessing
But I am your curse

My hand don't fit right in yours
Break my fingers to size so you can be sure
Paint a black sheep white so you can call it yours
Try to change the sky, turn it from blue to green
Three words you say, they're such a funny thing
You might love the feeling but you don't love me

Getting used to being alone
Three whole weeks ain't pick up my phone
Sitting here, like a stone
So go and find the blankest canvas
See if you can stand him
For a while
I'll be home in Arkansas
Away from all the madness
Staring at the sky

Touch the fire to know it burns
Wanna know but never learn
I wanna be your blessing
But I am your curse

My hand don't fit right in yours
Break my fingers to size so you can be sure
Paint a black sheep white so you can call it yours
Try to change the sky, turn it from blue to green
Three words you say, they're such a funny thing
You might love the feeling but you don't love me

Put on my cleanest dirty shirt
Put on a smile but it never works
Open my heart and it always hurts
