Damn These Hungry Times lyrics

Album: SIRENA (2002)


It`s so formless
That`s what killing me
Remorseless,
relentless and its endlessly
This pressure
On pleasures hard to find
It`s expression
Walks amongst these hungry times
Like the blues
made flesh

And so it goes
What of this can we keep
We`re scratching out a living here
Where living is dear and life is cheap
So we pray
to all of the gods who`ll listen
Deliver me, consider me
Get rid of these hostilities at my shoes
How can it be true, I

I`ll toe the line
But damn these hungry times
Just a little would taste so fine
But damn these hungry times

I`m suspicius
If love don`t leave no scars
Between its kisses,
Its curses and its calm
You know it won`t do
If love`s enough to eat
Then we`d hunger
And on the licks of love we`d feast
Till we`re ghosts
Of a memory
