Marty Willson-piper - Art On The Run Lyrics
The cane on the table is getting lighter, its almost disappearedI always thought that furniture was weirdRooms full of battered wood, Id live in empty rooms if I couldThe shape of my face is well-defined, improving with ageAll I need now is something to engageGrinning at images, Ill only talk to you if you appealBraving the elementsChildlike and delicateArt is on the run, art is on the runThe blood on the ticket is the same as the blood on the fingers at my throatIll prove it was you by the paintings on your coatSeams split in violent times, art is on the run and drunk again on wineIm safe and sound, Im full of money, a silver sixpence shinesSomewhere else a beach is sad and criesSand swept to damaged hills, another empty canvas Ive to fillClose to you and far away
