The Hunger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
i stand waiting for strangers in lay-bys.
i sleep soundly with my front door open wide.
love shakes you and wakes you from apathy.
but i can't find love, so i'm baiting pain to me.
give me that rush when they chased after us across the council estate.
with iron in our mouths and hyena on our tails.
this is life, this is life, this is life.
give me the hunger.
give me the world.
give me the heart of every boy
and every girl.
give me the hunger.
give me love.
what i have and hold in my hands,
it's never enough.
i drink till i can't see, and stumble home alone.
i flash my money and i advertise my phone.
when they kick the shit out of me i'll know.
i'll fall in love with life, and scratch her name on a wall.
love shakes you and wakes you from apathy.
but i still can't find love, and pain does the same to me.
kiss me like calvin kissed claire that day down by the back of the skips.
a tornado in her mouth and a fever down south.
this is life, this is life, this is life.
