Lyrics:
An empty stomach that
Yearns for a purpose
Can it be something that
Does a service?
Terrible hunger
For a thing I noticed
I fear the consequences if I tried to see
What it wanted me to be
Was it worth anything if I twisted myself
To fit into it, find a footing hoping
"This is it, it's real"
But then I hear,
"Freak! "
That's what they had said for
Testing my remaining patience
Burnout is a lot, not gracious
Working off the stresses, as if nothing ever meant anything
Resting fine, yet minimally
Had a plan originally
What is with my luck when I want something that will bring me joy, I'm
Hungry for a place right in the spotlight
Hungry for a feeling that feels so right
Seeking, waiting, rotting, fading
Sappiness ain't painless, so then
Why can't I be happy? Why do I feel worthless?
Given not a chance
Felt no given glance
Neglected and such
Where am I with this bad luck?
Working everyday, till
Feelings fade away, my
Mental's in decay, I
doubt that you had noticed
Working everyday, it
Always feels the same, I
Do it for a reason
Left myself for treason
Working everyday, till (Laaa)
Feelings fade away, my (Laaa)
Mental's in decay, I (Laaa)
doubt that you had noticed (Laaa)
Working everyday, it (Laaa)
Always feels the same, I (Laaa)
Do it for a reason (Let it fade away)
Left myself for treason (Fade away this)
I had thought that I was a fool, I'd
(Pain, pain, pain, pain, you made me feel)
Toil thinking I was not real to you
(Strain, strain, strain, strain, I shan't conceal)
Praying that you'd hear my screams, the
(Pathetic thoughts thinking I had a chance to fix all of this)
Walls crumbled, crashing down, no more sound came from me...
An empty stomach that
Yearns for a purpose
Can it be something that
Does a service?
Horrible hunger
For a thing I wanted
I fear the consequences if I tried to see
What it wanted me to be
Was it worth anything if I twisted myself
To fit into it, find a footing hoping
"This is it, it's real"
But then I hear,
"Freak"
That's what they had said for
Testing my remaining patience
Burnout is a lot, not gracious
Working off the stresses, as if nothing ever meant anything
Resting fine, yet minimally
Had a plan originally
What is with my luck when I want something that will bring me joy, I'm
Chasing knowing it will never go right
Running in a circle feeling a fright
Spinning, stalling, barely breathing
All this feeling lost its meaning
Why can't I stop yearning? Why do I feel worthless here?
Clung onto those memories
Thinking there was something more to concede
Could have such thing been the truth?
So now I keep on, keep on working
Keep on, keep on yearning
Hoping someone's noticed
A hope that someone could have saved me
Someone could have graced me
I should just accept this
Look at how you've faced (Fate)
The reality of failure
Acting as though you can't chase (Can't be outfaced)
The things you're after
Pacing, racing, all that tracing
Thinking you can't just do it
You just lack a motive here (Will you ever stop?)
You'll find it eventually
Think back to the ways you faced
The thoughts of failure
Acting as though you can't chase (This...)
The things you're after
Pacing, racing, all that tracing (Stung...)
Thinking you can't just do it
Can't you just give it a try? (Pain...)
Then you'll find your real answer
Then you'll find your true closure
Let your hunger be revised!
