Storytelling animals, truth told in lies
Afflictions from our fictions as our metaphors collide
Well, there are no containers big enough to hold
All the things I feel about you weigh down in my soul
So you be the starlight and I'll be your ship
We can go anywhere we want, our story's not written yet
Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift
We can be anything we wanted to blend
Canvas
And I'm looking at the world and it's feeling all messed up
It's hard to find much levity in worn pestilence
But maybe the world isn't broken, it's just trying to get born
And the fault lines and the growing pains are ours to explore
So you be the starlight and I'll be your ship
We can go anywhere we want, our story's not written yet
Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift
And we can be anything we wanted to blend
Canvas
So I'm gathering up my friends, I'm gathering up my paints
And I'm imagining a masterpiece of compassion and grace
And in the labor pains of love, the march parge of time and space
I'm wondering if we humans really are
I'm wondering if we humans really are
What we created
So you be the starlight and I'll be your ship
And we can sail anywhere we want, our story's not written yet
Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift
We can be anything we wanted to blend
Canvas
You be the starlight and I'll be your ship
You be the starlight and I'll be your ship
And we can go anywhere we wanted to blend
Where we want our stories now, right here
Way out past the breakers, I feel the shift
We can be anything we want, it's a blank canvas
