lyrics

It used to be easy to fill me up
Nevermore than a few small cups
There wasn’t such a gaping hole
Self-sabotage wasn’t the goal
Back when I was easy to satiate
I never stopped to appreciate
All the things I wish I’d known
How I was full all on my own

I’m more hungry than ever
I said I would never
More hungry or thirsty
God grant me mercy
a drink or a bite
To think or to fight
I gotta him alive
So I can survive

Tonight I took my first bite
He didn’t even try to fight
I’ve only heard about heroin
But a high came slamming in
Down the halls of my mind
Rattling thoughts for me to find
That thing I’ve been looking for
Knock knock knocking door to door

Oh I’m having a craving
I’m mad and I’m raving
There’s a void in my soul
It’s like a blackhole
a drink or a bite
To think or to fight
I gotta him alive
So I can survive

I wanted him to taste different
It was just my own ignorance
I was hoping he would fill my hole
Left from the all virtual trolls
But I’m still hungry and tired
From all that I’ve desired
I’ll keep him trapped as my pawn
Until that hole is all gone

This hunger is weak
I won’t let it speak
I can fill this hole
If I let go of control
a drink or a bite
To think or to fight
I gotta him alive
So I can survive

Who am I kidding he’s can’t fill my hole
I can’t find meaning from a grassy knoll
No other human can ever fill this void
It’s everything I’ve tried to avoid
It’s all on me and not society
So I can stop searching for notoriety
Eat all the men you can find
But fill yourself up on women kind
