Artifact by Belly (band) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here comes the heart
Decked out like a criminal
Making its way to the end of a reckless day
Bestill the heart
You don't see the tragedy
Crawling its way to the end of another banner day

[Chorus]
Don't give up yourself to the sad man
That's not the hand you were handed
Not to worry, it's just a smudge on the lens
An artifact on the heart
An artifact on the heart

[Verse 2]
Check out my hand
So well stacked against you
But you and I know we were never blessed with the full deck
Be still my heart, you don't see the trick of it
When I overplay and lay myself on the table
[Chorus]
Don't give up yourself to the sad man
That's not the hand you were handed
Not to worry, it's just a smudge on the lens
An artifact on the heart
An artifact on the heart

[Bridge]
Ring up that shot
The one where we're laughing hard
Look at that glow there over your eye
Well you look more like yourself than ever here

[Chorus]
It's just a smudge on the lens
An artifact on the heart
An artifact on the heart

[Outro]
What's the point of giving out? No
Either way the devil's gonna find us
Might as well go out with our dukes up
Either way the devil's gonna find us
Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up
Either way the devil's gonna find us
The devil's gonna find us
The devil's gonna find us
It's just a smudge on the lens
An artifact on the heart
