A Hunger in Your Haunt
A Craving Unveiled: Biffy Clyro's Echo of Existential Yearning
Lyrics
The glass is not half full
The optimistic view is not present.
It's not half empty
The pessimistic view is also absent.
Instead it lays half fucked upon the floor
Instead, there's a chaotic and damaged situation.
Reason has gone
Logical thinking is lost.
Purpose has gone
Direction and meaning are gone.
All that's guaranteed is the fucking state we're in
All that's certain is the difficult state we find ourselves in.
We bring nothing in
We come into this world with nothing, and we leave with nothing.
We'll take nothing with us when we leave
-We bring nothing in
-We'll take nothing with us when we leave
-A hunger in your haunt
A strong desire or need in your dwelling or atmosphere.
Are you taking
Are you enjoying or finding satisfaction?
Pleasure in this storm?
Reference to a challenging situation.
Brace yourself
Prepare yourself for a harsh reality.
Here's a slap across your jaw
A sudden impact or realization.
Can you find any hunger in your haunt?
Can you discover any longing or desire in your environment?
My mind is crying out for stimulation
The mind is craving for intellectual or emotional arousal.
It's been dark a while so where's the fucking dawn?
In a dark period, where is the hope or positive change?
Wisdom no more
Loss of sagacity or deep insight.
Eloquence no more
Loss of articulate expression.
All I loved is broken down and gone to seed
Everything once loved is deteriorated and lost.
We bring nothing in
Reiteration of the transient nature of life's possessions.
We'll take nothing with us when we leave
-We bring nothing in
-We'll take nothing with us when we leave
-A hunger in your haunt
A deep need or craving in your dwelling or atmosphere.
Are you taking
Are you deriving enjoyment from the chaos?
Pleasure in this storm?
Reference to a challenging situation.
Brace yourself
Prepare for a harsh reality or consequence.
Here's a slap across your jaw
A sudden impact or realization.
Can you find any hunger in your haunt?
Can you discover any longing or desire in your environment?
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Musical interlude or emphasis.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
-Whoa-oh-oh-oh
-A hunger in your haunt
A deep need or craving in your dwelling or atmosphere.
Are you taking
Are you deriving enjoyment from the chaos?
Pleasure in this storm?
Reference to a challenging situation.
Brace yourself
Prepare for a harsh reality or consequence.
Here's a slap across your jaw
A sudden impact or realization.
Can you find any hunger in your haunt?
Can you discover any longing or desire in your environment?
