Anatomy Of The Artist (Anemia) Lyrics

(I never leave the house anymore)

Give all I have to what I make and lay them at your feet

Some days I think they feel more real than me

You can take what's left, it's all for you anyway

You can take what's left, take everything

Look inside me, find nobody

I gave him away in songs I scrawled

And sung to anybody who would listen at all

There is no flash of wonder

There is no muse to ponder

This is creation as it comes

This is art as blood

From an open wound, and it's never enough

(God, it's never enough)

Oh we, the tortured and starving

We, the hurt and consumed

We, who spare all our darlings

We, the worst of you

And we, the tired and haunted

We, the unholy few

We, who chase the horizon

We, who bleed for you

There is no flash of wonder

There is no muse to ponder

This is creation as it comes

This is art as blood

There is no flash of wonder

There is no muse to ponder

This is creation as it comes

This is art as blood

From an open wound, and it's never enough

(God, it's never enough)

(Burn me out) Burn me out, sand me down

(Sand me down) Burn me out, sand me down
