Greg Freeman - The Artist Lyrics

Take my feet and hold them to the fire
Try to smoke the truth out of my veins
Lay your board upon me
Add your bricks, your stones
And crush me to the ground
Take my arms and tie them to the boulder
Try to pull the evil from my soul
Cast your spell upon me
Cut the rope you tied so lonely
Watch me fall
You'd never do those things to me
Cause I am the subject
Of your ar-tis-try and
I've unlocked your gallery
The way
You take
The canvas in your brain
To paint me the monster
Make me insane
You're truly an artist who's living in vain
My words
They say
Have caused this disarray
You paint me the monster
Make me the one
But you're the creator of what you've become
Now you can't erase the art you've done
Take my breath and feed it to the water
Try to drown your heartache in the sea
Drop your anvil on me
With your chains Into the darkness
Set me free
You'd never do those things to me
Cause I am the subject
Of your ar-tis-try and
I've unlocked your gallery
The way
You take
The canvas in your brain
To paint me the monster
Make me insane
You're truly an artist who's living in vain
My words
They say
Have caused this disarray
You paint me the monster
Make me the one
But you're the creator of what you've become
And now you can't erase the art you've done
The art you've done
The art you've done
The art you've done
The way
You take
The canvas in your brain
To paint me the monster
Make me insane
You're truly an artist who's living in vain
My words
They say
Have caused this disarray
You paint me the monster
Make me the one
But you're the creator of what you've become
And now you can't erase the art you've done
The art you've done
The art you've done
The art you've done
