Roan Yellowthorn - Factory Man lyrics

{Verse 1} I know a man Not very well Mostly from what I've heard tell He lives alone In rented halls With all his paintings On the walls {Pre-Chorus} And he collects A TV shrine You should see all the photographs that he’s had signed His famous friends don't know his name But it's on all the faces on the picture frames (Ahhahhahh) {Chorus} He has the heart of an artist The soul of a poet In the factory break room He sketches portraits Of tired men Sitting down He sees beauty All around Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh {Verse 2} He knew a girl Who didn’t stay She's still in town But far away Sometimes he smokes A pack a day Thinking over What he'd say {Pre-Chorus} And if you chance Upon his face You'll know That he's in another place He can go there anytime Where light and color are intertwined (Ahhahhahh) {Chorus} He has the heart of an artist The soul of a poet In the factory break room He sketches portraits Of tired men Sitting down He sees beauty All around {Bridge} He used to be On faculty To college kids Near Albany For twenty years he taught them art If you ask him what happened He'll read your chart and Tell you what your stars say It never hurts to know what'll come your way {Chorus} He has the heart of an artist The soul of a poet In the factory break room He sketches portraits Of tired men Sitting down He sees beauty All around {Outro} In the factory break room He's a tired man Sitting down Who sees beauty All around
