Art in an Empty Space

From canvas painted black
Torn pages and rough drafts
Did we come from the sand
Did we need help to stand back

Did we need help to stand back
Did the artist close his eyes

Did the paint rain from the sky
Oh such a haphazard sight
Did we need help to lie down

Did we need help to lie down

Imagine floating back
Slow motion gold and black
No savior, no escape
Just art in an empty space

From dreams filled with air
We fell back began to tear
We were formed, tossed in hair
Perfectly packaged, primped without a care

Only pretending we'd know how to share

Not given feathers yet told to fly
Not shown truth so forced to lie
I just wanted a bigger piece of pie
Just wanted a bigger piece of pie

Now imagine floating back
Slow motion gold and black
No savior, no escape
Just art in an empty space

Our home, this street, your house
All shout, we are the most beautiful ones

Now imagine floating back
(Further with you)
Slow motion gold and black
(Black and blue)
No savior, no escape
Just art in an empty space
