Unwritten
Countdown Singers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
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
Oh, oh, oh
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
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
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
Oh, yeah, yeah
The lyrics to Countdown Singers' song "Unwritten" convey a message of self-discovery and embracing one's individuality. The song starts by describing the singer as "unwritten" and "undefined," suggesting that they are still in the process of discovering themselves. The metaphorical "pen" symbolizes their ability to shape their own destiny and make choices that are not predetermined.
The lyrics encourage the listener to look beyond societal expectations and limitations. The "blank page" and "dirty window" represent opportunities for growth and exploration. The sun symbolizes enlightenment and the illumination of the "words" that the singer could not find. It is a call to live authentically and pursue what truly makes them happy.
The motif of "reaching for something in the distance" suggests the desire to achieve dreams and goals. The mention of inhibitions being released indicates a need to let go of fear and allow oneself to take risks. The rain on the skin signifies a cleansing and refreshing experience, reinforcing the idea of breaking free from constraints.
The repeated line, "No one else can feel it for you, only you can let it in," emphasizes personal agency and the importance of self-expression. The lyrics also highlight the power of individuality, urging the listener to speak their own truths and embrace the unspoken, unleashing their unique potential. The song inspires the listener to live life with openness and embrace every moment as an opportunity to begin writing their own story.
