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 space 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
