lyrics

I can't live on bread and butter but I'll try,
for a few the dream is alive but I will probably die.

This starving artistry,
something needs to awaken,
but this is part of me.
This can't be...

I don't presume to live too honest,
but I don't craft lies
or hide off along the fringes
feigning kind.

This starving artistry,
something needs to awaken,
but this is part of me.
This can't be
taken

This can't be taken.
