Hunger
The Anahit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wonder why I became so cold as ice
Maybe the hunger I feel cannot be satisfied
Maybe the truth ain’t real, maybe it’s all a lie
Ma’ aint a saint, the future aint so bright

Because the hunger I am feeling
Only leaves me in the morning
Comes running in the evening
And my bones are too weak to fight

So I’m screaming why
Can’t you leave at night
Oh I’m screaming why
Am I trapped by your side

Hunger, hunger hunger
Soon as the sun goes down the feeling gets revived
Hunger, hunger hunger
This shit’s like the earth that moves, spin around
Hunger, hunger hunger
Do anything just to get it off my mind
Hunger, hunger hunger

Because the hunger I am feeling
Only leaves me in the morning
Comes running in the evening
And my bones are too weak to fight

So I’m screaming why-y-y-y
Can’t you leave at night
Oh I’m screaming why
Am I trapped by your side

Hunger, hunger hunger
Soon as the sun goes down the feeling gets revived
Hunger, hunger hunger
This shit’s like the earth that moves, spin around
Hunger, hunger hunger




Do anything just to get it off my mind
Hunger, hunger hunger
