the song i've been on about

cursive is good! even if you don't like bright eyes...don't like lump them in with that just cuz i always do...conor isn't even in this band i promise! haha...hmm...enjoy?

cursive - art is hard

cut it out
your self-inflicted pain is getting too routine
the crowds are catching on
to the self-inflicted song

well here we go again
the art of acting weak
fall in love to fail
to boost your cd sales

and that cd sells...yeah, what a hit

you've got to repeat it
you gotta sink to swim
if at first you don't succeed
you gotta recreate your misery
cuz we all know art is hard
young artists have got to starve
try and fail and try again
the comforts of repetition
keep churning out those hits
til its all the same old shit

oh, a second verse!
well, color me fatigued
i'm hiding in the leaves
in the cd jacket sleeves
tired of entertaining
some double-dipped meaning
a soft serve analogy
this drunken angry slur
in 31 flavors

you gotta sink to swim
immerse yourself in rejection
regurgitate some sorry tale
about a boy
who sells his love affairs
you gotta fake the pain
you better make it sting
you're gonna break a leg
when you get on stage
and they scream your name

'oh, cursive is so cool!'

you gotta sink to swim
impersonate greater persons
cuz we all know art is hard
when we don't know who we are
