Hunger painsĀ
Do i really wanna be where i was a year ago?Ā
is the comfort worth it? (it isnāt)Ā
can i practice self control? (consistence)Ā
i want you but i gotta let you go(resistance)Ā
i gotta put it in writing to let you know? (iāll print it)Ā
i already miss the feel of your lips (when u kiss it)
a feeling i canāt shake (persistent)Ā
hunger painsĀ
i crave the chaos, the passion, the motionĀ
but at what cost? my mental? (i risk it)Ā
i need it this instantĀ
something so bad, taste so good, i miss itĀ
you operate in lust, not commitment
but at this point, itās not about love (iāll admit it)Ā
this shit been my life, i canāt quit itĀ
iāve triedĀ
to let you go and let the days go byĀ
to let the high cloud my mindĀ
the drugs in which i relyĀ
the feelings that i denyĀ
out of sight, out of mind
hunger painsĀ
time framesĀ
mind gamesĀ
everythingās the sameĀ
my sanity i must reclaimĀ
the process of this sadness and shameĀ
for reasons i canāt even explainĀ
hunger pains, a feeling i must maintain.Ā
hunger pains, like knives twisting in my side,
But it's not my stomach growling, it's my pride.
I starve for more than foodāit's the thrill I seek,
That rush of adrenaline, that momentary peak.
I crave the taste of you, the fire in your eyes,
A hunger so deep, it cuts through the lies.
The way you leave me empty, yet full of desire,
Like chasing a flame, but never touching the fire.
Hunger pains, they tighten, pulling me in,
To the same old cycle, the same old spin.
I tell myself Iām strong, I can fight the need,
But your memory lingers, a seed I can't weed.
The comfort is a poison, sweet on my tongue,
And the more I indulge, the more I come undone.
I want to break free, but the hungerās too loud,
It drowns out the logic, it makes me so proud.
I feast on the moments when you're out of reach,
On the highs and the lows, on the lessons you teach.
But is it worth the ache, the constant empty space,
The way I chase the thrill but never find my place?
Hunger pains, they gnaw, they bite at my soul,
Leaving me hollow andĀ never quite whole.
I crave the chaos, the dizzying spin,
But when the feast is over, what did I win?
I snack on excuses, on reasons to stay,
But deep down I know, Iām just wasting away.
And still, I reach for that next sweet bite,
Knowing full well it wonāt fill me tonight.
So Iāll wrap this up like a doggy bag,
Leftovers of a love that I used to have.
Hunger pains, theyāll keep, and so will Iā
Another craving left to die.
I laugh at it sometimes, let it gnaw at my core,
'Cause whatās the point of starving if youāre always wanting more?
Itās in the silence, the quiet hours before dawn,
the growl beneath my ribs, where every love is gone.
The need feels like a memory, something I wonāt release,
'cause hungerās not the problem, itās the taste of false peace.
You play your hand like a game, but I know the deal.
"Here we go," you said, "another uncertainty we feel."
I watched you fold into fame, couldnāt adjust to the pain,
I stayed in my hunger, and it grew with every refrain.
Iām used to the longing, Iām used to the burn,
used to wanting something more than Iāll ever earn.
But sometimes I wonder, do I need it to survive?
Or is it just a distraction from whatās really alive?
Still, the hunger keeps me moving, keeps me on this track,
so I run with itāknowing thereās no turning back.
Hunger's become my rhythm, like a song I can't escape,
its beat, a steady whisper, shaping what I take.
It sharpens my focus, like a blade against stone,
keeps me chasing things that Iāve never truly known.
Iām familiar with the craving, it's etched into my bones,
the need for chaos, the rush, the pull of the unknown.
Every momentās a gamble, each move a risk I take,
because without the hunger, I fear that I might break.
The fame fed you well, but I starved on the side,
watching you devour what I couldnāt provide.
Iāve learned to live with less, even when itās hard to breathe,
but I wonderādoes the hunger ever really leave?
Itās like a second skin, one I canāt shed or flee,
and maybe, just maybe, itās whatās keeping me free.
But there's a humor in it too, twisted and sly,
'cause hunger's what binds me, but also eats at my mind.
Iāll keep chasing it, running with the beast,
knowing that in the hunger, I find a strange peace.
And though it drives me mad, takes me to the edge of reason,
I laugh because it's constant, in every passing season.
So Iāll sit with my hunger, let it be what it is,
knowing, at the end of the dayāit's what Iāve always missed.
I crave what I canāt have, but isnāt that the game?
Weāre all just chasing something, lost without a name.
And though Iāve tried to quit it, tried to let it go,
the hunger calls me back to the only life I know.
Itās not about the comfort or the peace Iāve yet to findā
itās about the hunger, woven deep into my mind.
It keeps me sharp, keeps me alive, keeps me on my toes,
because without the hunger, where else would I go?
So I'll let it lead me, through passion, pain, and strife,
for in the hungerās chaos, Iāll carve out my own life.
And maybe when itās over, when the hunger's finally done,
Iāll look back and realizeāthatās where I truly won.
Hunger pains,
I tend to come late to the game,
Like a bag of fries gone cold, or a walk of shameā
I l leave in the morning, knowing nothingās the same.
I keep moving, but itās all just in vain,
I crave what I canāt, I yearn for the taste,
but everything I feast on leaves me in a haste.
Hungerās a game you canāt really win,
You binge on the love, then starve from within.
"There's food at home," but itās dry as your hope,
and you chew through the pain just trying to cope.
Hunger pains, they whisper your name,
pull you right back into the same old frame.
The taste is addictive, but it donāt satisfy,
Iām left with a hunger that no feast can deny.
So have you ever felt hungry, do you know of the ache?
The pain that digs deeper with each bite you take?
Itās not just in your gut, itās buried in your soulā
a void that no love, no meal can make whole.
You reach for the comfort, the thrill, the quick high,
but itās fleeting so it vanishes just as you try.
Do you feel the hunger, the burn that remains,
long after the pleasure, the joy and the fame?
Like chasing a high but one has no aim
Im running to hide, to give you the blame.Ā
To lose all my hope but to still feel the same.
The moments you took, deserving of pain. Trapped in a song, canāt tell you the nameĀ
All part of the cycle, no end to the game.Ā
To feast on my body, to devour the shame.Ā
Im famished, you know but I can just proclaim.
You are not God & I am not your disciple but
Itās like leaving a table, but the craving's your rival.
So I ask youādo you feel that sting?
That eats at your brain when youāre chasing the thing,
That never quite fills you, that never quite fits,
But you go back for seconds, convinced that it hits?
The pain knows what its doing, it makes the rules,Ā
The hunger sits back & just plays a fool.
Itās the bite that tastes sweet, but it doesnt sustain,
And youāre left there, empty, with something pointless and plain.Ā
Itās in the late-night cravings, in the silence you keep,
Itās in every sleepless hour when the hunger wonāt sleep.
So you wrap this up like a meal gone cold,
Leftovers of feelings I just canāt quite hold.
You never get use to it, it never gets old.Ā
People tend to pick Love over Pain, Ā
but I have never been bold.Ā
So I stick with the hunger & the pain that it shows,
Cause at least it presents itself in a way that I know.
Love feels too fleeting, too far, too unknown,
And Iād rather live with the hunger Iāve been conditioned to call a home.
Iām fighting to stay, but you're fighting to goā
And in that dance, itās the hunger that grows.
You see, love asks for too much, demands that I bend,
But pain stays consistent, like a reliable friend.
I feed on the ache, 'cause it never betrays,
Itās always been there in a hundred different ways.
And while love might be sweeter, it donāt last the night,
Pain wakes me up, keeps me sharp in the fight.
Itās the hunger that lingers, itās the hunger that stays,
While love? It just flickers, it just drifts far away
Love might fill you for a moment, but hunger sustains,
Itās the only thing left when nothing remains.
But hereās the lesson: itās not about the feast,
Itās in how you survive, a moment of weakness can keep you alive.Ā
Alive in the hunger?, a question you might ask.
You canāt help but wonder, why Iāve taken on this task.
Love is too intricate and too flimsy to sail,Ā
Pain puts in weight, in my heart & the scale.
It sharpens your edge, makes you feel alive,
In hunger, you suffer, but through hunger, you thrive.
So I'll stick to my hunger, my pain and my pride,
Because love has many secrets and Iāve got nothing to hide.
And when you're full on love, you forget what you chase,
But in hunger, its constant, youāve got to keep up the pace.Ā
So next time youāre full, thinking peace is your gain,
Rememberāitās hunger that teaches you to thrive through pain.
