"The Hunger" lyrics
"The Hunger"
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
We kill, to war, to murder, to hurt
Scorch the skies and poison the earth
And watch the stumbling efforts to partially fix it all again
Time has cracked, the warning sirens have faded
It's coming.
Either hell above, or heaven below,
The board has been set, your bed has been made,
Lie in it, as you realize you can't eat your money,
It is nothing!
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
Rat race… Maze… Occupied… Blind… Sheep…
Save us, save us, save us,
There's an answer to this, that has walked the earth,
The first was to warn, to teach, to lay down a life.
(Sacrifice!)
But the leaders of man convoluted it all,
Sticking fingers of their virus into all that is pure,
And they dig, and they dig, and they dig, and they dig!
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
We were the hungry, you fed us poison
We were the silent and you kept speaking
We were the hungry, you fed us poison
We were the empty, and you kept taking
We were the silent and you kept speaking
So don't you, don't you look away
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
Thanks to chy for correcting these lyrics.

Beartooth - "The Lines" Am I the son in or out of law
How many chances do I get before my head explodes
What's going on
What's going on
When I look into the mirror there's another gun
What's going on
What's going on
When...
Memphis May Fire - "That's Just Life" I know how it feels to feel alone
The king of my own fears, I never leave the throne
And I've been searching for a place inside my soul
Where all my demons can't find me when I go
"Pull it together,"...
Wage War - "Stitch" Leave me in the dark with a hole for a heart
As low as I can get, burn the bridge, rip the stitch out
Pick it up
I can't pretend like it's all part of the plan
I can't hide it, blindsided, I can't...
Emarosa - "Cautious" I can't help myself
Holdin' onto anybody
You came into the light
I'll stay strong, depending on it
Tried to love you like you love you
And I can't blame myself, movin' on
I know too many...
Lies...
