Color of Your Ideas Run Together

It is often said that music is a painting on a canvas of silence. This song I wrote as a musical description of a painting, this time with painting becoming a palette of sound. Voices become a paintbrush, the bass ebbs and flows like paint out of the tube. Will my next creative stroke be at the center, or should the center really be the top? The song slows down and speeds up just like how inspiration does. The song shares the hope that art would heal no matter what form it takes.

Color of Your Ideas Run Together

Lending our voices everyday spells out love

Circle of shadows, square of light

Hope your tomorrows turn out right

Helping our people everyday spells out hope

Color of ideas run together

Following how they blend

Together on the mend

Run together, run together

Edge toward the center middle at the top

Where dreams enter

And won’t stop

Color of ideas run together

Following how they bend

Together we’ll send

Run together, run together

Lending our voices everyday spells out love, love, love

Color of ideas run together

See how the painting ends

Created by my best friend

Run together, run together
