Lyrics
Starvation Is Gluttony
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.
It causes nothing but pain and suffering
Constantly dying, starvation is gluttony
Paint this shattered scene
I keep calling out for something more now
False sincerity
I'm looking for more than just another day
Drift away with a shattered disposition
Your body fades
Who decides what we consider perfection?
It causes nothing but pain and suffering
Constantly dying, starvation is gluttony
There's no one she can trust
Repressing the secret under her skin
She's never good enough
Just don't let it take you
Don't let them change you
Feelings taking over
There lies sinking deeper
She's not good enough for them
It causes nothing but pain and suffering
Constantly dying, starvation is gluttony
You live inside these walls
You point out all of your flaws
And hide behind this life you live
Don't let it take you
Don't let them change you
I'm gasping at her shoulder blades
It's never easy when you're never good enough
It causes nothing but pain and suffering
Constantly dying, starvation is gluttony
You live inside these walls
You point out all of your flaws
And hide behind this life you live
