This is a song about god and paint and purpose.
I made a time-lapse music video of the painting for this song: (link is only visible to registered users)

LYRICS:
Here in your arms isn't close enough, maybe that's on me oh god.
How was I shaped from an artist's touch, when I can't feel you?
All I felt was silence.
Tell me if there's a god, why does he make mistakes?
Scraping the paint that drys the skin in a need to erase
Cause being human is flawed, only beauty decays
How those hands that used to hold will wash me away
Oh they'll wash me away
I find warmth in the shutters that I've yet to close and I know every window frames a broken soul.
How dare you try to fault me for my faith when I can't feel you.
All I felt was silence.

I do feel a bit weird posting this on AT since most of the song wasn't made on this DAW- the piano and my vocals were recorded directly into a tascam portastudio with not much need for a DAW. The only work that was done in post was mastering which was done in a separate draft. Regardless, if streaming becomes obsolete someday and someone finds enjoyment from this song, then I feel that my posting it is justified to some degree.

Very relatable song. I understand. He feels so distant sometimes. Keeping your faith is not easy my friend, but remember that Jesus is no further from you than the next breath you take. He's always listening, just waiting for you to come to him with all your pain. And even if we feel worthless sometimes, we are all very important and loved, most importantly by God, even if we don't feel like it sometimes. Praying for you man <3, dm me if you ever want to talk about anything

I'm not forcing anything on you, not even God will do that. I just saw the lyrics and wanted you to know that God never left you my friend. He's still with you, even as you're reading this. Life can get stagnant sometimes. Just don't lose hope man <3

Beautiful... The art u make is never pointless. It's a way of coping with emotions. Just keep playing and creating. It's ok to feel doubt sometimes. I genually hope u fee better soon. I really enjoyed listening to this track. U convey the emotions very well. It's not easy to do. It's what true artists do.

What is the song about? I have a hard time hearing what ppl are saying over music (vocals are complete gibberish most times), cause of the auditory processing disorder I have. But I would like to know, if you're comfortable with sharing
-
pretty relatable tbh
-
I've hit a wall where I no longer understand why I make the art I do- why I should exist or why I should keep existing. Every day it gets harder to write or pick up my guitar or just sit down and paint for a bit. This song talks through a lot of the thought processes I've been coming to terms with over these months.
