Hungers

lyrics

Written on my palms
A hidden riddle
It’s all a riddle really
I’m a girl who’ll never know it all
With my hands I built
A little city
An endless project is the only thing
That makes me feel natural
~
These habits formed before I knew my name
I spoke my first words
These habits tell me when
To heed the call
These hungers are the last ones at my parties
They never leave me, no
These hungers are the reason for this all
~
Wonder if I’ll ever make it simple
Be glad to loose control
Wonder if I’ll ever loose control
If one day I woke up with no filters
If I just said what’s in my head
I wonder if you still would think I’m cool
~chorus~
Everybody says don’t sweat the small stuff
That it will kill me quick
So I sweat all the biggest things I know
Is it such a crime, to want the big fish
If I can live with less
Without this hunger I would never grow
~chorus~
These habits….
