Hunger
Amaranthe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hear me scream
It's unreal, what's inside of me
Broken bones and the code that hunts me
I come home, I'm alone, is it gone
What I'm feeling is surreal

World in flames
It's a chase, I'm a cornered man
It's a pulse in my veins, no delays
It's a rain, it's a chamber of dust
As I'm viewing the plains

Of the sorrow I lust

I have no faith in our reality
No mirror can correct my destiny
One thing to rule what I've become
Take it or leave it 'cause this is my love song

A drop of blood
A flood of anger for old times

Of the sorrow I lust

Hunger - save me
One world depending on me
I have the force in me
The truth will be revealed
Higher - faster
I am the fuel to set you free
I am your destiny

Inhumane
I'm ashamed in the pouring rain
Disinform, set the norm
You're to blame
Spin the wheel, break the seal to conceal
That I'm finding it so real

I'm ashamed, not the way that I want to be
Have to bare my own soul, unveil me
To discern it's my turn, have to learn
I have to face it

That the world will burn

This message written for us on the wall
No need to correct the way I walk
One world, one lust and our dream
Ruined in pieces, a human machine

A drop of blood
A flood of anger for old times

Of the sorrow I lust

Hunger - save me
One world depending on me
I have the force in me
The truth will be revealed
Higher - faster
I am the fuel to set you free
I am your destiny

One raging anger
Grows inside
From the sorrow I lust

Hunger - save me
One world depending on me
I have the force in me
The truth will be revealed
Higher - faster




I am the fuel to set you free
I am your destiny

The sound this band is offering to the genre is pretty different from what I've heard so far. They are mixing nice pedal work, with awesome guitars and solos and very catchy voice melodies and choruses. I listen to a wide variety of metal on a daily basis, and this band really amazes me. Can't stop listening to them, even when I'm at work lol

@DarkArchon212

Amazing song. Still can't get over how good the chorus is especially

@metalxwarrior

Agree

@TheSpedy21

Man i love the mix of the woman singing, the clean guys singing and then the growl!

@TheSorrowOfTheReaper

Viderberg Same here. You shoud listen to Deadlock, they also do that kind of stuff pretty well ;)

@devon-crain

TheSorrowOfTheReaper Deadlock is so great!!!

@Zabiru-

Viderberg Check out out Sonic Syndicate if you like this. Largely the same deal. They only have two guys singing though (one growl, one regular song).

@Tjalmann
