Magical crayon

Verse 1

Found it in a junk drawer dusty and worn

Crayon with a whisper like it's never been torn

Scrawled a crooked door on my bedroom wall

Now a hallway's glowing where there wasn't one at all

Stepped through the archway into painted sky

Dragons I doodled started blinking one eye

A castle I sketched in three shaky strokes

Cast a shadow long across the morning oak

Pre-Chorus

Every outline breathes

Every color sings

Watch the marker bleed

Into living things

Chorus

Draw a world then watch it wake

Give the paper sky a quake

Purple lions orange lakes

Whatever I imagine takes

Purple lions orange lakes

Whatever I imagine takes

Verse 2

Drew a best friend smiling in blue

He laughs like a thunder I never once knew

We rode a paper rocket made of marker strokes

Past constellations drawn in cartoon pokes

Right there in the margin I sketched my fears

Small gray monsters shrinking under pioneer years

With one bold stroke I crossed them out

And watched the scribbles scatter leave a quiet doubt

Pre-Chorus

Every outline breathes

Every color sings

Watch the marker bleed

Into living things

Chorus

Draw a world then watch it wake

Give the paper sky a quake

Purple lions orange lakes

Whatever I imagine takes

Purple lions orange lakes

Whatever I imagine takes

Bridge

Maybe I'll draw a crooked real

Maybe I'll draw the way I feel

Maybe I'll draw a crooked real

One line at a time I steal

Chorus

Draw a world then watch it wake

Give the paper sky a quake

Purple lions orange lakes

Whatever I imagine takes

Purple lions orange lakes

Whatever I imagine takes
