Just got a Natasha Bedingfield CD. Don't ask me why, just got the urge. Her lyrics are unbelievable! Some of the songs may need some polishing (in my opinion), but her UNWRITTEN song leaves the mark of a musician and a poet put together. The song's a message of hope, for embracing the future despite the pangs of the past. This song's for all ya'll stuck-in-the-mind, don't-know-what-to-do, always-thinking-and-not-feeling Libras. I think you guys better learn from those infectious, misunderstood, and all-heart Cancers. Hmmm, now I wonder what Natasha's sign is... Anyway, immerse yourselves in her words. Here it goes.

Unwritten
(Natasha Bedingfield)

I am unwritten, can't read my mind
I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand
Ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you cannot find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else can
Speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

I break tradition, sometimes my tries are
Outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes but
I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten...
