Starving Artist

Teeth stained from black coffee
Clothes smell of cigarettes
Eyes red like a fucking junky
Whisky hangs on my breath

I'm an artist
Starving artist I need

Sometimes life it tends to hand you everything
Sometimes I would sell it all for the dream

Starving artist
Starving artist
Starving artist
You only take what I can give
But you give me nothing I need

Heavy weighs these eyes upon me
Like there's a price upon my head
With these hands I create
With this voice I take a stand

I'm an artist
Starving artist

Someone tell me that this is the life I'm to lead
Someone stop me from burning down everything

Starving artist
Starving artist
Starving artist
You only take what I can give
But you give me nothing I need

I've played you every single song that I know
But I just can't find your favorite note
I just can't find your favorite note

Oh it's all within the eyes
Of whom beholds creative minds
