I have something to say As has anyone who's ever made Anything worth enjoying Nobody can destroy it Left unchecked, it mutates Bleed in desperation to create Collapses me like a star Sickness inside my heart Whenever I fear death, I think of that Which I would fear much more Never dying, is that what you're always striving for? I leave a stream of greenery in every path I walk Chased by a monster of a thousand voices That always wants one more Please don't ever take it from me Changes the color of the air that I breathe In grief's fertile land The space in between clapping hands They say it'll pass, I used to pray that it would But its absence never brought anything good I wake in the morning, do all of my chores then Thinking in silence and drinking sweet wine Putting my mind somewhere outside Where it can feel the sun, maybe it'll connect with someone The world's the world and I'm a person in a tiny body I vow to live, I won't let fear be anything that stops me I'm not a violent person, but I make things with aggression I'm not a violent person, but my work is one exception I won't let you take it from me Changes the color of the air that I breathe I wasn't always tortured I made art long before then I call into the void until I lose my voice But sometimes a cry reverberates back A child with mud-caked hands Or a prolific and obsessive older man I do it unpaid, unseen, unthanked It's worth more than anything that I have (You can never have it ever) (You can never have it ever) (You can never have it ever) I won't let you take it from me Changes the color of the air that I breathe I won't let you take it from me Changes the color of the air that I breathe I won't let you take it from me
