You Feel Nothing

You feel empty so you eat...
   watching violence on TV
You feel empty so you eat
   feeding violence from the stream

   you know this loss is hard to take

You feel tired so you sleep
   fire alarm across the street
You feel tired despite your sleep
   feeling harm all down defeat

   you know this loss is hard to take

You feel thirsty so you drink
   cursing breweries kitchen sink
You feel lonely so you drink
   burning cruelties make you think

You feel bored and so you break
   precious things were hard to make
You feel bored and so you break
   you know this loss is hard to take

   Repeat first verse

   you know this loss is hard to take

   Repeat last verse
