"Written in May 1997 for an acting class. Inspired partly by Julia Cameron's book 'The Artist's Way' (which we were using as an acting text at the time), the song in an argument between my inner critic and my inner artist." - Brian
lyrics
My life is an open book, blood on every page
Crippled and unwanted, always in the way
"Stand on your own two feet, act like a man"
Looking for acceptance since time began
But I can love with all I got
I can be loved
I can hold you tight until the stars fall from above
I can whisper "I love you" when the morning comes
I am worthy, I am love
I never had the courage, I never had the looks
The only people who loved me were found in dirty books
People tell me my love is wrong, and it's a sin
A walking talking ego, that's all I is
But I can love with all I got
I can be loved
I can hold you tight until the stars fall from above
I can whisper "I love you" when the morning comes
I am worthy, I am love
I feel I've here before so what did I do
To justify the torture I've been through
Sweet souls in paradise drift through my life
Wisdom comes with age, they say,
But what's the price?
But I can love with all I got
I can be loved
I can hold you tight until the stars fall from above
I can whisper "I love you" when the morning comes
I am worthy, I am love
