Zola Jesus - Hunger lyrics

rate me

(Song starts at 11:00 in the link)

(Verse)

Oh, I got the hunger

It moves but won't lose it

I'm not gettin' younger

I use it, abusively

(Chorus)

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

It's takin' me under till it takes me away

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

I won't surrender, still it takes me away

(Verse 2)

It's been five years waitin' around for

Crooks that will swallow gold

Sick of being seen, tired of these ?

It won't save me, it won't please(?) me, no

I got a hunger, it will not let go

I got too many roads to know

(Chorus)

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

It's takin' me under till it takes me away

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

I won't surrender, still it takes me away

(Verse 3)

It's been too many times, I've tested myself

Waiting up on Nemo, absolute you (?)

Mother Lung, gimme a heart shake

Suffer, this maze I gotta break

It won't let up, it won't save me, no

I got a hunger that will not let go

I got too many roads to know

(Chorus)

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

It's takin' me under till it takes me away

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

I won't surrender, still it takes me away

(Bridge)

(Takes me away)

(Takes me away)

(Takes me away)

There is something I want

I long for, I need

There is something I want

I long for, I need

(Chorus)

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

It's takin' me under till it takes me away

I got the hunger, I got the hunger in my veins

I won't surrender, still it takes me away
