clark sisters - blank page lyrics

my life is like a canvas
and on most days i do my best
to fill it in with my mess
til’ your image can’t be seen
how i love self-centered sketches
painting my ways to the edges
but i think what i like best is
how it looks so much like me
no more now
i’m laying my colors down
til my picture fades away
chorus
i am coming clean
i am offering
every sp-ce in me for you to fill
and i am coming clean
i am promising
if you’ll write on me your perfect will
then i’ll be a blank page
maybe my life’s like a story
that was written for your glory
but i guess i found that boring
so i took your pen in hand
and i scribbled you a bit part
and i made myself the big star
but replacing you proves too hard
guess i don’t know how it ends
no more now
i’m laying my best plans down
my story fades away
chorus
make your masterpiece
out of each day in me
i beg you, beg you
where my plans have laid
come write your better ways
i beg you, beg you
lord i need you
story behind the song:
i almost quit this business recently. i love my job and the people i work for and with, but i reached a point at which i couldn’t balance my friendships, family and work – and all my plans to do so were falling apart and leaving me more tired and torn every day. i finally told a friend of mine that i wanted to go back to being a guy without a record deal, with just a guitar sitting on the floor writing songs that n-body would hear. i wanted to be a blank page – no dreams or plans of my own. so i prayed this song. (jeremiah 29:11, isaiah 55:8)
