Song Assignment - Unwritten




I
 am unwritten 

Can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning
The pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

I break tradition
Sometimes my tries are outside the lines
We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes, but I can't live that way, no

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin

No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten



     The song I chose is Unwritten. This song is about being yourself and just living life. I personally have loved this song since a very young age and Its always been quite close to my heart. I use to litsen to this all the time when I wasn't feeling well, and I still litsen to it but not as much. This song connects to me because when I was younger I use to be really scared about being myself and I would act like others, but I realized later that I need to be myself. I always use to be scared to do things and be shy, but after litsening to this song, I wasn't shy about it myself anymore. I would always be scared to do things, almost like stage fright but in real life but as I grew up that changed. I have had so many connections with this song and it has always stayed one of my favourite songs for a long time now. I love this song as much as I did when I first heard it. This song stands out to me so much and I feel like everytime I hear it, it's made for me. I have such a strong connection to this song, especially the chorus. I always use to worry about the past and this song says to just live in today, this really connected to me. I don't think about the past as much, and this song has taught me to do that. The entire chorus has so much meaning to it and it always connects to me. I love how this song says live in today, the rest is still unwritten. This song is basically saying that in your book of life, things are being written as they go, don't worry about what has to be written. Overall this is such a great song, and I connect to this very much.
