This Hunger Won't Leave

Each brand new day, it begins just the same
Filled with hope for the future and dreams of restraint
But stumbling blocks seem to litter the way
And by nightfall I'm broken and swallowed again.
I want to reach higher than familiar planes
But my habits are shackles, they drag me away
Isn't there more to this world than my pain
The horizon, it glitters, but it's too hard to say
Can't you travel on up your mountain?
Can't you travel on up your mountain?
Can't you travel on up your mountain?
No, this lesson won't leave
All I desire is spiritual weight
To better the world and to alter my fate
But all I’m consuming my ego rejects
And I'm trapped in a maze
Just retracing my steps
Can't you get it out of your system?
Can't you get it out of your system?
Can't you get it out of your system?
No, this hunger won't leave
Everybody's comin' at it tense, it's plain to see
Has it always been so hard to be a human?
Everybody's sitting on the fence, including me
Do we run away or turn to face our demons?
Can't you just admit that it's over?
Can't you just admit that it's over?
Can't you just admit that it's over?
No, this vision won't leave
The surface doesn't seem to make much sense, a clouded mess
But beneath it all I know there is some order
Sifting through my fears, my hate, my love, my emptiness
I will someday hit upon that boundless border
Won't you put your lips to this water?
Won't you put your lips to this water?
Won't you put your lips to this water?
And quench your thirst to be free
Won't you grab ahold of this hammer?
Won't you grab ahold of this hammer?
Won't you grab ahold of this hammer?
And build a new day with me

When two souls meet
And the whole world feels new
Shared moments sweet
All colors bright and true
And there is laughter
And there are good things growing everywhere
And I’m happy to be in this place with you
And I’m happy to be in this place
You let it out
You laid it all across the table
What’s this about?
And you’re making me unstable
And I don’t want to go down this road with you
No I don’t want to go down this road
I want to go
But I can’t, and I won’t
I’ll learn to sew
Up the wounds that I broke
Open with you
‘Cause I knew, and I chose
And I don’t feel at home in this world anymore
And I don’t feel at home in this world
We rein it in
And there is better understanding
Nobody wins
When there is flight without the landing
And we learn
To keep our hearts in time
Try not to burn
The careful ties that bind us together
And I’m taking the long way around with you
I’m taking the long way around
And I’m happy to be in this place with you
And I’m taking the long way around
