Song story:
This song was birthed from the thought of what my life would be like without my amazing wife Julie. That idea later began to morph into thoughts of what life would be like without God. All three verses paint a pretty bleak picture, but everything turns around at the bridge. Hope you like my song, 'What I Am.'
Thanks for listening!

VERSE: 1
Like a hidden grave
In a field of flowers
That no one knows
Is even there
Like a pendulum
Swinging back and forth
A rhythm with no melody
Just blank and bare
CHORUS:
That's what I am without you (4x's)
VERSE: 2
Like a colorless portrait
Of black and white
Contains no story
And is void of life
Like a starving lion
With no will to survive
He's lost afraid
And surely to die
VERSE: 3
Like a lonely ship
Lost at sea
He's tossed and turned
And beaten badly
Like a shattered clock
In need of repair
Time pushes on
Without a care
BRIDGE:
You lift my soul up
From the watery grave
You put the melody
Back in my song
You bring the color
Back into my portrait
You give me hope
To carry along
CHORUS: 2
That's what I am with you (4x's)
