lyrics

Sunny morning wake up feeling funny and your dress is torn
It's all fun and games until you're lying on the bathroom floor
Tell yourself you're better off without it but how bad's one more
No one ever showed you where the hell the off switch was before

I gotta ask how are you supposed to know what's waiting on the other side of all this if you never stop to give yourself an honest try

You’re never gonna feed that hunger

Trying to fill yourself on cravings, something that'll keep you numb
Face the facts that you don't have to think hard when you're having fun
Marathon of mercy don't know where it ends but you can run
Get yourself a trophy made of fools gold but at least you won

Just a habit you can kick it, find some glue and just stick with it pray you pull the golden ticket- in the end you've got to pick it...

You’re never gonna feed that hunger
I know you feel far from wonder
Trading one sorrow for another
You’re never gonna feed that hunger

We’re all on the search for what we can feed
And we gotta find somethin' within reach
Based in reality
And then reality will be a dream

Just another bump
Just another touch
Never gonna be enough until it's too much
Just another, just another

Take a breath and tell yourself it's worth it to give up the need
Save yourself a sin or two and turn off all the pride and greed
Feel it like a cut and then try tellin' yourself not to bleed
But nothing’s ever gonna grow if you don't stop to plant the seed

So tell the little voice inside to pack it up, you know she tried but now you're finally off the ride and you can set the hurt aside because...

I’m never gonna feed that hunger
I’ve never felt so close to wonder
About to get out from under
I’m never gonna feed that hunger

You’re never gonna feed that hunger
I know you feel far from wonder
Trading one sorrow for another
But you’re never gonna feed that hunger
