The Hunger

[Guitar Solo]

[Intro]
I am on the outside always looking in
Living alongside your world never within
Some times there are moments I think I am involved
But I never seem to stay, don't seem to fit
I just don't belong

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus 1]
Living on the outside, the emptiness I feel
Living on the outside, ruled by the hunger

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 2]
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, the hunger

[Post-Chorus]
All of the blood, all of the wine
Will become the same in time

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Nothing can seem to fill the emptiness inside
So still I search and never wait for the time or the tide
I am on the outside, always looking in
Living alongside your world, never within

[Chorus 2]
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, the hunger

[Outro]
Ruled by the hunger
Ruled by the hunger
Ruled by the hunger
