She Said Run - Starving Artist Lyrics

They tell me I'm priceless
Couldn't put a tag on me
They praise me for talent
No one out there sounds like me
They tell me I'm better
Than anyone they've ever met
Anybody can tell me
But turn away and they forget
Nickel and dime the man with the big dream
And dollar support the ones who don't make me think
If I can get your work of art for free
Then why help you if you're not helping me
They tell me I'm worthless
I play in bars, and clubs, and stores
I practice for hours
Just to go and get ignored
They say, you're worth more to me in the garbage can
Cause we support whatever's in high demand
So go sing all you want and wear out your hands
Just don't forget, I never wanna understand
I've done this four years now
Another song another day
A bottle of strong stuff
Will make their words all go away
Cause you're worth more to me in the garbage can
If we support whatever's in high demand
So go sing all you want and wear out your hands
Just don't forget, I never wanna understand
Nickel and dime the man with the big dream
And dollar support the ones who don't make me think
If I can get your work of art for free
Then why help you if you're not helping me
Why would I help you if you're not helping me
