Songtexte

All of my life, I’ve been catching up…
Drain me to the dregs for another cup;
Kiss me, say good night just to wake me up
Earth circles the sun time and time again;
Come thunder or shine, all come by the wind…
Nine months and Spring’s children are winter-thin again
“Come to me,” beckons the ocean…
The same tired streams add nothing to me
I’m never full
I’m never full, no, no
I’m never full
You push to pull –
Can’t pull the wool… no, no
I’m never full
I’m never full
Full…
I growl with the lions for more to eat
Spine pricked for a Daniel who can’t believe
His years of devotion won’t make me sleep
I’m the earth on a midsummer’s afternoon
Demanding more ransom for every bloom…
But Hades is hungry, and water won’t do
“More to me!” Bellowed and braying –
“Make him bleed!” Each bite, redder meat
I’m never full
I’m never full, no, no
I’m never full
Your forfeit’s cruel
Let mercy rule, oh no
And I’m never full
I’m never full
Full…
Had a dream of old death knocking on our door
He paid me in long life for room and board –
First the den, then the nursery – each year he took more
When I woke and I saw you, I loved you twice
The amount that I would had you never died
Here’s to swallowing tears, here’s to water we cry
“Come to me homeless and fainting
Pour your grief to the ocean I’ll drink…”
