Hunger Songtext

von Of Monsters and Men

You are right
I'll move on
But my lungs feel so small
I couldn't breathe if I tried

I lay my head on the floor
My beating heart wanted more
But I'll keep it in and keep you out

I'm drowning, I'm drowning
I'm drowning, I'm drowning

And for the longest time I knew
There was nothing left for us to do
But I tried, Oh I try

And in this quiet company
There is nothing staring back at me
I'm in need of a sound
Hungry for the kill
But this hunger it isn't you

Voices disappear
When you're speaking
In sombre tunes

I will be the wolf
And when you're starving
You'll need it too

Hungry for the kill
But this hunger it isn't you
It isn't you
It isn't

I grew tall to fill the void
Let me go because you
Are just a shade
Of what I am not what I'll be

But in this quiet company
I forget sometimes just
How to breathe
Fill my lungs with a sound

Hungry for the kill
But this hunger it isn't you
Voices disappear
When you're speaking
In sombre tunes

I will be the wolf
And when you're starving
You'll need it too

Hungry for the kill
But this hunger it isn't you
It isn't you
It isn't

I'm drowning, I'm drowning
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
I'm drowning, I'm drowning

I'm drowning, I'm drowning
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
