lyrics

you catch your prey
but it eats you up
you stop say well hey I think I know
I think it's strange
that
sometimes love
is just a big old word
to justify doing anything you ever heard
but i think I'm gonna stop that now
Think I've had enough of that now

'cause i feel that way most of the time
i'm so scared to lose
but I wish I didn't think I had anything to prove
you want someone who can disappear
right into his fears, well, hey, i'm right here

CHORUS
sometimes i want to be
swallowed whole
consumed by something i can't be
and i don't know
but i've had my fill
and somehow I'm still
oh, yeah, yeah, I'm still hungry

it's a miracle we made it this far
with the sense that nothing is ever good enough
and I think I've got to stop that now
I know I've got to stop that now

because nothing works like it would
and nothing feels as good as they advertised it would
but it you want someone who has
mastered the art of being numb
well, hey, here I come

CHORUS

Instrumental

you want someone
who can come undone
and still look OK
well, hey,
it's your lucky day

sometimes i want to be
swallowed whole
consumed by something i can't be
and i don't know
hey, i don't know
well, all i know
is that somehow
I"m just like everybody else
And I'm trying so hard
to fill this hole I've got inside myself
but i've had my fill
and somehow I'm still
oh, yeah, yeah, I'm still hungry

i'm just like everybody else
i'm just like everybody else
i'm just like everybody else
i'm just like everybody else
