The Hunger

Blaze

I am on the outside always looking in

Living alongside your world never within

Some times there are moments when I think I am involved

But I never seem to stay, don't seem to fit

I just don't belong



I live at right angles to the people that I meet

Because I am never still, not my soul and not my feet

I could walk a thousand miles, and ride a thousand more

My life seems worthless, just like footprints on the shore



Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel

Living on the outside, ruled by the hunger



From the first taste of this altered truth

I knew I could not live the way that others do

Nothing can seem to fill the emptiness inside

So still I search, never ever wait for the time or the tide



Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel

Living on the outside, a wound that cannot heal

Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel

Living on the outside, ruled by the hunger



All of the blood, all of the wine

Will become the same in time



Nothing can seem to fill the emptiness inside

So still I search, never wait for the time or the tide

I am on the outside, always looking in

Living alongside your world, never within
