Hungry...

Lean and hungry look
Such men are dangerous
Such men as me

Getting greedy for a good thing
So sweet but it doesn't rot the teeth
It gets the gears going
Spinning faster
Working hard
In my mind
Addiction?

Lean and hungry
Dangerous
Me

Possibilities enter the picture
The frame stretches 
The frame shrinks
All the world encompassed in a single dot
A circle

Grow and shrink
To the rhythm 
The rhythm of her heart

Pulse, pulse
The life blood of the world
Greedy again
The hunger grows

The burden of knowing I am wanted
I am needed
To know that I make a difference
My old building and loan pal

The greed expands
Growing
Taking over my life
To say hello
To spare some change
To give without question or judgement

Hungry
Hungry for change
Looming over me
This cloud follows overhead 
It can't rain all the time

Scatter
Breakthrough 
The light warms me over and gives me strength

All I know is what I experience
The world only exists through the senses
It's all in my head
The world
On my shoulders
I am Atlas

I am my world and I can change it
The power lies in me to bare this burden
To hold it up high
To say ''this is me, lean and hungry, in us lies the power and you can not stop the change!"

Lean and hungry
She calms the storm 
My pulse is faster

For a time I can relax
With her

Experience
The love
For me
For you
For everyone who ever cried

Once you have a taste for it
You are going to get hungry for it
You will get greedy for it
You WILL want it everyday
