Sculptor

From the album: Limbic Pulse

Intro - instrumental

Verse 1
Past,
What did you give me?
Deformed pieces of
An impossible puzzle.

Verse 2
With never-ending patience
I've tried all sorts
Of combinations
Within the frame.

Verse 3
No way to win this game,
The pieces won't fit,
No matter how hard I tried,
In vain, in vain.

Intermezzo - instrumental

Chorus
I need to be
My own creator,
With a blank canvas,
Using my imagination.

Verse 4
Today I feel strong,
I throw away
The unfortunate pieces
I was given.

Bridge
I soak them all
In crystal clear water,
Let them soak and soak
Into a workable paste.

Verse 5
I will process
This new ingredient,
I will sculpture it to
Something new, something me.

Chorus
I will be
My own creator,
With a blank canvas,
Using my imagination.

Verse 6
I knead the dough
Again and again,
All air bubbles of the past
Pressed out.

Verse 7
My imagination wakes up,
Eager to create something new.
I sculpt and sculpt,
No more sharp edges.

Chorus
I am
My own creator,
With a blank canvas,
Using my imagination.

Virtuoso solo - instrumental

Outro

A work of art arises,
Me expressed in an outer form,
Me the sculptor,
No more limiting frame.
I let my imagination
Create and create.

No more sharp edges,
A smooth work of art.

No more sharp edges.

Outro - instrumental

Musical style concepts

Avant- garde art pop mix with trip hop. Low-pitched female voice. Lots of variation and building up towards end. Generally up-tempo. Chorus must be low-pitched.
