Hunger

Spent my time away letting myself go
I was showing myself I could make a home
I could change your mood if you'd let me through
Set in stone
Time went still
I was trying to help, I always slipped through
It was not my intention, but my words came true
Craning my neck
Changing the hue
Bloodshot eyes
Mix out the blue
You live life blind, I can't be you
Surprise myself by trying something new
Take from me, and I'll find you
Sacred piece, might end you
I let go, but then you came true
Live my life, but only for you
No enemies, I can't lose
You hear me
I see you

I just flipped another page
I still heed the words when I don't know what they mean
Deceived by your eyes it isn't what it seems
They only create nightmares when they sell you dreams

All this hunger left me painless
At least nothing's ever gain-less
I'm taking pride in what you don't have to say
Hold me down and I'll guide you through the rain
Simple-minded humans could step into your place
Clamor for your god while I still light up the stake
So naive to think that we're built the same
You lost it all when you forgot it's a game
You sold your soul for fifteen minutes of fame
To end up all alone nothing but hunger and pain
You ain't worth the blood that's inside your veins
To hold me down you'll have to put me in chains

I let go, but then you came true
Live my life, but only for you
No enemies, I can't lose
You hear me
I see you
