In the extended essay, A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf, she writes "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction". Julie Larocque has taken that concept and applied it to the art of making music. The song describes writers block, and how an artist feels on the verge of creating but becomes impeded by external pressures (money, time etc).
Lyrics
I can’t feel myself tonight
I’d go inside but I’m locked out
Starving for experience
As I take the cloak off my conscience
CHORUS
I’ve got this room Virginia
I’ve got this room of my own
I’ve got this room Virginia
I’ve got this room of my own
I will try to hear my heart
I will draw my portrait in the dark
Collapsed before the thoughts could submerge
But I still have the deepest urge
CHORUS
I’ve got this room Virginia
I’ve got this room of my own
I’ve got this room Virginia
I’ve got this room of my own
Now I can feel each thought pass
They range from one to a thousand
At last they found a way to merge
But they died before I could say a word
CHORUS
I’ve got this room Virginia
I’ve got this room of my own
I’ve got this room Virginia
I’ve got this room of my own
