| Imogen Heap – Canvas Lyrics
| 16 years ago

|
To me this song is about the difficulties of being an artist. Struggling to keep the canvas taut is a metaphor for all of the difficulties (e.g., self-doubt, exhaustion, stress, writer's block, etc.) that she may encounter when she is trying to write music. The artist in the video is putting up with a lot of adversity (traipsing through the cold snow alone and carrying a heavy canvas) just so that he can create something. The message to me is that being an artist isn't easy. |

"The urge to feel your face, in blood, rushing to paint my hand print
And Frisbee one by one, your vinyl on laminate"
She is frustrated with the party, so she wants to slap someone and also throw his records on the floor? |
