Of Monsters and Men - Hunger lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

U 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 beatin' heart wanted more

But I'll keep it in and keep u out

(Interlude x2)

I'm drownin', I'm drownin'

(Verse 2)

But for the longest time I knew

There was nothin' left for us to do

But I tried, oh, I try

And in this quiet company

There is nothin' starin' back at me

I'm in need of the sound

(Chorus)

Hungry for the kill, but this hunger, it isn't u

Voices disappear when u are speakin', in somber tunes

I will be the wolf and when you're starvin', you'll need it too

Hungry for the kill, but this hunger, it isn't u

It isn't u, it isn't

(Bridge)

Let me go cos' u 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 the sound

(Chorus)

(Interlude x4)
