Art Is Hard Lyrics - The Ugly Organ - Cursive

Cut it out 

Your self-inflicted pain 

It's 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 

You gotta' sink to swim 

If at first you don't, you don't succeed 

You gotta recreate your misery 

'Cause we all know art is hard 

Young artists have gotta starve 

Try, and fail, and try again 

The comforts of repetition 

Keep churning out those hits 

'Til it's 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 entertianing 

Some double-dipped meaning 

A soft serve analogy 

This drunken angry slur 

In thirty-one flavors 

You gotta' sink, gotta' sink, gotta' sink to swim 

Immerse yourself in rejection 

Regurgitate some sorry tale 

About a boy who sells his love affairs 

You gotta' fake(fake!), fake(fake!), fake the pain 

You better make(make!), make(make!), make it sting 

You're gonna' break(break!), break(break!), break a leg 

When you get on stage 

And they scream your name 

"Oh, cursive is so cool!" 

 

You gotta' sink, gotta' sink, gotta' sink to swim 

Impersonate greater persons 

'Cause we all know art is hard 

When we don't know who we are
