Twisting truth, making it mine.
The world rests in my hands.
Nothing can change it but I.
Molding, shaping, carving life
finding my reality within this bloody lie.
Withered, cracked, and calloused hands
reach for oil and paint.
Create that place, the one you see
and climb inside to stay.
An artist never settles for merely what he has
disappointed by what we got,
we start again from scratch.
Ink, the weapon, canvas a shield
staving off the barren truth
tings change when one man dies,
why nothing as it's hoards?
Erase the troubles, touch up mistakes
-AND RUN-
split up, bloodied, broken hands
caress the artist's wounds.
Terrified of what's inside, he's out to fill the holes.
An artist never settles for merely what he's got
And they don't care, they leave them there
To lie in shadow and rot.
