Hunger


We thirteen daemons come for our final feast
Spearing through the clouds, speeding from above to the human nest
Lives put to test, you need to care, lest
It will be you

Deprived of fear and feel
Hunger and thirst (our zeal)
Bloody blood, and our throats are cleared
Hunger and anger endanger the race
It’s you next, you’re near

Blackened nails and dark soul-less souls
There’s no ifs, no buts, it’s you
Contentions only make it worse
It’s better if we converse
You cannot undo the curse

Killing you by suffering
We’re freeing you from suffering
Pulling you from the ring
In this bestial rage, we free you from the cage
F*** your age

Deprived of fear and feel
Hunger and thirst (our zeal)
Bloody blood, and our throats are cleared
Hunger and anger endanger the race
It’s you next, you’re near

@Drive-thru
It is a song. I don't write poems. Thanks for appreciating it.

Thanks for pointing me to these lyrics and to 'Hurts the Paradise'. It's always nice to find lyrics that have something thought provoking to say about society. Cheers.

Ah yes, I bothered you a lot on this one as I quite couldn't get the meaning!!
This one's pretty thought provoking!! You do have a nice touch when writing on odd themes!

@Saadi - Yea, like most of my songs, this one too has two different meanings.

Thanks a lot!!!
