Hunger
These empty eyes have never known joy in life
Hear God above looking down on us tossed to the side
"Why do you waste the breath that I've blessed you with?"
His words cut me like a knife
Is it a heartbeat I feel inside?
Is love what I should call the pain I hide?
And as my eyes are shaken alive by emptiness
I have come to call a hunger for my whole life
I'm breathing, eating, empty every single day
I season up my plate with the dreams I've thrown away
Ah
Who's behind these dead eyes?
A monster at a table for two
He's never full, another day consumed
Ah
My insides churn each time you come crying
A bittersweet buffet, just keep filling up my plate
This Hunger is eating me
I pour another bowl of soup that's stewed
In all the tears I've brewed over dreams still unchewed
While reaching for the fork, we're torn apart
A feast eating out of our heart
Ah, acting on instinct, I'll take my tongue to eat
I'm just so hungry, I slit my throat to feast
With my blood to drink
I swallowed every piece that's left of me, ah
I've had too much to eat
I've had too much to eat
I vomit, eat, repeat it
Where am I? I'm lost, I'm
So drunken on the sound of your cries
They never stop, they feed my appetite
Ah
I'm praying for anything to save me
Come fill this heart that's gone to waste
Take away my pain
This Hunger is eating me
My lips are bitten, seething
My nails are broken, bleeding
Just how many tears have left me choked and gagging?
Would dying say I'm sorry
Would dying say I'm sorry
Just how many times have I been down this road?
I've lost control!
I don't know who these hands belong to anymore and I can't take it
Its taken toll... its taken toll
I'm so sick of using you to tame this appetite
I should let you go
Heartless and cold, this body is a hollow, broken bowl
What do you call such a soul?
Ah
Ah
I'm drowning in the tears that I've cried
Grabbing a knife, I take another bite
Ah
My insides churn each time you come crying
A bittersweet buffet, just keep filling up my plate
This Hunger is eating me
No, I've had enough
Keep crying, you can't change
I've had enough
Keep eating, feeding your shame
Behind these eyes
My mind and body fight
I've lost control of my life, I scream
This Hunger is eating me
Hear God above looking down on us tossed to the side
"Why do you waste the breath that I've blessed you with?"
His words cut me like a knife
Is it a heartbeat I feel inside?
Is love what I should call the pain I hide?
And as my eyes are shaken alive by emptiness
I have come to call a hunger for my whole life
I'm breathing, eating, empty every single day
I season up my plate with the dreams I've thrown away
Ah
Who's behind these dead eyes?
A monster at a table for two
He's never full, another day consumed
Ah
My insides churn each time you come crying
A bittersweet buffet, just keep filling up my plate
This Hunger is eating me
I pour another bowl of soup that's stewed
In all the tears I've brewed over dreams still unchewed
While reaching for the fork, we're torn apart
A feast eating out of our heart
Ah, acting on instinct, I'll take my tongue to eat
I'm just so hungry, I slit my throat to feast
With my blood to drink
I swallowed every piece that's left of me, ah
I've had too much to eat
I've had too much to eat
I vomit, eat, repeat it

Come fill this heart that's gone to waste

Would dying say I'm sorry
Would dying say I'm sorry

Keep crying, you can't change
I've had enough
Keep eating, feeding your shame
Behind these eyes
My mind and body fight
I've lost control of my life, I scream
This Hunger is eating me
