Am I no longer a songwriter? Am I no longer in love? Am I just pushing paint along this Spanish wall? Am I no longer a romantic? Am I no longer a child? Am I just a woman who walks away from all that she has held? And is your Creature of Habit your beast of burden, does Living amongst your fears, somehow, make you worthy? And so you kick him out and break him at the knees Pluck his eyes and give him wings And whisper sweetly in his ear From that which I have held most dear I shall, go clear And all those bastard artists, consuming love like it's Only food for their foolish trade Giving up, giving out, giving away Their 'mundane' love in the name of 'inspiration' But if, love is a witness then, I see you And if, love is a witness then I've been seen through, and through And if love is a witness, I must be going blind For I seem to be leaving, the one I love behind But if love is a witness, I want my eyes open wide For all the world they might imbibe And is that the more I'm asking for That my heart be forever broad? Is this real freedom I procure? Or is love by nature local? And I'm just giving it away Giving it away, giving it away Giving it away, giving it away Giving it away, giving it away I've done it before, oh Lord I've done it again Did you want your golden mornings Or your weekends away? Did you want your Creature of Habit To have some place to stay? Did you want your side of the bed Your favourite cup for tea? Why do you kick your Creature Comfort? He only wants to bring you peace And so you Kick it out and break it at the knees Pluck his eyes and give him wings And whisper sweetly in his ear From that which I have held most dear I shall go clear For I'm a bastard artist, consuming love like it's Only food for my foolish trade Giving up, giving out, giving away My real life love in the name of 'inspiration' I am no longer a songwriter, I am no longer in love I am just pushing paint along this Spanish wall I am no longer a romantic, no longer a child Am I just a woman who walks away from all that she has held?
