"All the world's a stage And every word a note And every day is filled with songs You never knew you wrote."
-Jude Fiona Apple - Paper Bag
I was staring at the sky Just looking for a star To pray on or wish on or something like that I was having a sweet fix Of a daydream of a boy Whose reality I knew was a hopeless to be had But then the dove of hope began its downward slope And I believed for a moment That my chances were approaching to be grabbed But as it came down near So did a weary tear I thought it was a bird but it was just a paper bag
Hunger hurts and I want him so bad, oh it kills 'Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up I've gotta fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, starving works when it costs too much to love
And I went crazy again today Looking for a strand to climb Looking for a little hope Baby said he couldn't stay Wouldn't put his lips to mine And a fail to kiss is a fail to cope I said honey I don't feel so good Don't feel justified Come on put a little love here in my void He said it's all in your head I said so's everything but he didn't get it I thought he was a man but he was just a little boy
Hunger hurts...
