Hungry for the Stage 歌词

They sell my body in close-up My pain gets clicks They cheer me on while I bleed This isn't criticism, it's a tic Every frame is a contract That I never really read I signed it with blood and a smile Trading my soul for vanity Applause is anesthesia I've become my own company Selling pieces, selling scenes Profits grow, I empty myself I'm hungry for the stage And the stage is hungry for me Who's eating whom in this deal? No one asks about the end The audience asks for just a little more One more cut, one more scream I give it because I don't know how to stop It's become a habit, it's become a ritual Backstage, no one asks If there's anyone left here They just want to know if the show goes on If I can handle repeating it Applause is anesthesia But the dose isn't enough anymore I need more stage To feel like I'm still human I'm hungry for the stage And the stage is hungry for me Who's eating whom in this deal? No one asks about the end The spotlight doesn't warm me It just illuminates what's rotting And I was built to shine Not to be seen, I'm withering away I'm hungry for the stage And the stage is hungry for me Who's eating who in this deal? No one asks about the end
