Constant Hunger

Constant Hunger

Verse 1

All these little rejections build up in your soul

Being turned away crushes your self-esteem

All these little let-downs surround you ever so slowly

To the point where they're about to consume you

Disappointment is such a drag

All these little distortions ingratiate themselves into your mind

Your belief system is based on lies and propaganda

All these little unpleasantries make for ruined situations

It's challenging to generate momentum and to keep it progressing

Verse 2

All these little recollections buried deep within your psyche

Flashes of the past burst through like a manufactured hurricane

All these little anomalies becoming a nuisance

Plans are adjusted and cancellations are put into effect

Verse 3

All these little machinations developing sight unseen

Theories abound when they're finally revealed

All these little medications destroying what's left of your health

Natural functions are being replaced through artificial means

Bridge

Trinkets no longer appease you

Gadgets don't appeal to you

Substance is intoxicatingly desirable

Chorus

You're wanting more out of life

But are left unsatisfied

You give more than you receive and feel under-appreciated

Attempting to explain yourself causes misunderstanding

This is how constant hunger dwells in you
