Oh, I got the hunger
It moves but won't lose it
I'm not gettin' younger
I use it, abusively
Abusively
I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins
It's takin' me under till it takes me away
I got the hunger, I got a hunger in my veins
I won't surrender, still it takes me away
It's been five years waitin' for them
Crooks that will swallow gold
Sick of being seen, tired of these wild ways
It won't save me, it won't taste me, no
I got a hunger, it will not let go
I got too many roads to know
I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins
It's takin' me under till it takes me away
I got the hunger, I got a hunger in my veins
I won't surrender, still it takes me away
It's been too many times, I've tested in myself
Waiting up on nemo, absolute zero
Mother lung give me a hard shake
Suffer, this maze I gotta break
It won't let up, it won't save me, no
I got a hunger it will not let go
I got too many roads to know
I got the hunger, I got the thunger in my veins
It's takin' me under till it takes me away
I got the hunger, I got a hunger in my veins
I won't surrender, still it takes me away
(Takes me away)
(Takes me away)
(Takes me away)
There is something I want
I long for, I need
There is something I want
I long for, I need
I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins
It's takin' me under till it takes me away
I got the hunger, I got a hunger in my veins
I won't surrender, still it takes me away
