Hunger

I wanted the stars, you gave me the sky
It will never be enough
My hunger strikes, I'm never satisfied
I just can't consume enough
My will breaking, racing towards a bitter end
Choking on the aftertaste
How can I survive on what you've given?
It will never satiate

On these stars I've made a wish
A million voices, a million fists
I wish I may, I wish I might
Devour it all in one bite

Will all this ever be enough?
I don't want to hunger anymore
Sometimes I lose my passion, forgetting all I loved
Is this the best we'll ever know?
All my idols gave up long ago
I'm terrified I'll lose the taste for all I've loved

When the sweetness starts to lose its taste
The sour contaminates
From pretty pedestals we're getting all we've craved
Try to swallow up the shame
When beauty all decays and rots
I'm still starving deep inside
Tearing petals off me one by one
Until I'm just barely alive

On these stars I've made a wish
A million voices, a million fists
I wish I may, I wish I might
Devour it all in one bite

Is it ever enough? Forgotten all that I've loved
Is this the best we'll know? All my idols gave up so long ago
