Hungers - Metal Mother

A hidden riddle

It’s all a riddle really

I’m a girl who’ll never know it all

With my hands I built

A little city

An endless project is the only thing

That makes me feel natural

These habits formed before I knew my name

I spoke my first words

These habits tell me when

To heed the call

These hungers are the last ones at my parties

They never leave me, no

These hungers are the reason for this all

Wonder if I’ll ever make it simple

Be glad to loose control

Wonder if I’ll ever loose control

If one day I woke up with no filters

If I just said what’s in my head

I wonder if you still would think I’m cool

These habits formed before I knew my name

I spoke my first words

These habits tell me when

To heed the call

These hungers are the last ones at my parties

They never leave me, no

These hungers are the reason for this all

Everybody says don’t sweat the small stuff

That it will kill me quick

So I sweat all the biggest things I know

Is it such a crime, to want the big fish

If I can live with less

Without this hunger I would never grow

These habits formed before I knew my name

I spoke my first words

These habits tell me when

To heed the call

These hungers are the last ones at my parties

They never leave me, no

These hungers are the reason for this all
