Starving Artists
We're all starving artists
In a world by ourselves
We can't afford our food
Only dust on our shelves
We sit and write our songs
We sit and write our tests
But no one pays for either one
Can't afford our knowledge yet
We can barely feed our mouths
They only feed our minds
And the mind is getting stronger
And the mouth is left behind
When we had the time, we didn't have the means
When we got the means, we didn't have the need
To seek out one another, this desperate artist's cry
Searching for our brother, who's time was flying by
We can barely feed our mouths
They only feed our minds
And the mind is getting stronger
And the mouth is left behind
When I am not around, and friends just can't be found
Someone will be there, tapping on your window
When the days are passing by, and your money has run dry
And your school's all out of pie
This is the bridge
Between young and old
Between stories that are long foretold
Between friends and family
The difference between you and me
This is the bridge
Between them and you
Between new things that you never knew
Between the beginning and the end
The story of finding a long lost friend
La la lalala la la
La la lalala la la lalala
La la lalala la la
La la lalala la la lalala
When I am not around, and friends just can't be found
Someone will be there, tapping on your window
When the days are passing by, and your money has run dry
And your school's all out of pie
When I am not around, and friends just can't be found
Someone will be there, tapping on your window
When the days are passing by, and your money has run dry
And your school's all out of pie
In a world by ourselves
We can't afford our food
Only dust on our shelves
We sit and write our songs
We sit and write our tests
But no one pays for either one
Can't afford our knowledge yet
We can barely feed our mouths
They only feed our minds
And the mind is getting stronger
And the mouth is left behind
When we had the time, we didn't have the means
When we got the means, we didn't have the need
To seek out one another, this desperate artist's cry
Searching for our brother, who's time was flying by
We can barely feed our mouths
They only feed our minds
And the mind is getting stronger
And the mouth is left behind
When I am not around, and friends just can't be found
Someone will be there, tapping on your window
When the days are passing by, and your money has run dry
And your school's all out of pie
This is the bridge
Between young and old
Between stories that are long foretold
Between friends and family
The difference between you and me
This is the bridge
Between them and you
Between new things that you never knew
Between the beginning and the end
The story of finding a long lost friend
La la lalala la la
La la lalala la la lalala
La la lalala la la
La la lalala la la lalala
When I am not around, and friends just can't be found
Someone will be there, tapping on your window
When the days are passing by, and your money has run dry
And your school's all out of pie
When I am not around, and friends just can't be found
Someone will be there, tapping on your window
When the days are passing by, and your money has run dry
And your school's all out of pie
