"The Hunger" lyrics

Lord I'm sick of counting
Won't you let me off your leash?
Heard "everything is sustenance
The fat my body needs"
Lord I'm sick of purging
Oh you cannot weigh my soul
An angel's still an angel
Even when she's lost control
Lord I'm sick of tracking
Oh my Tupperware's no trap
I pray to beg for seconds
Like a hound upon my lap
Lord I'm sick of waitin'
For my beauty to begin
Why's every good emotion
Always footnoted as sin?

The hunger comes, the hunger comes
To claim another soul
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
To claim another soul
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
It reaps but never sows
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
Disguising as control

And I was struck my lightning
In the hour I was born
My mother always blamed me
At the coming of a storm
And I could never fill up Lord
No matter what I did
The hunger's been my shadow
Ever since I was a kid
But Lord I'm sick of looking
At the dimples in the glass
And zooming in on screenshots
Of the hipdips on my ass
My thighs were grown to bound through
All this late September wheat
Who am I to say "not now"
If my body's beggin' "eat!"

The hunger comes, the hunger comes
To claim another soul
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
To claim another soul
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
It reaps but never sows
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
Disguising as control

My ancestors would be proud
Of these shoulders I have built
They'd plate me up a serving
Without any ounce of guilt
Maybe then I too could be
At peace with how I'm made
And when I stand here naked
I will let go the charade
Lord I'm sick of counting
Won't you let me off your leash?
Heard "everything is sustenance
The fat my body needs"
And Lord I'm sick of purging
Oh you cannot weigh my soul
An angel's still an angel
Even when she's lost control

The hunger comes, the hunger comes
You'll never take my soul
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
You'll never take my soul
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
So fill another bowl
The hunger comes, the hunger comes
Yes fill another bowl
