Kent "We need to eat" Songtext

We need to eat

She grows silent, the light fallsDoes it scare you?Does it chew you to the bone?I’m sorry, I didn’t knowThen I won’t put the lights outThough you hate to undress before my eyesFor your pale skin is in need of summerlight

I say: You need to eatShe says: I’ll feed on your breathWhat if I leave?She says: Without you I’ll be deadI need some sleepbut I can’t let her aloneand if I leaveI’d be afraid of coming home

She grows silent, the light fallsCause it scares youand I can’t help but smileAnd your best friend has to be the morninglight

I say: You need to eatShe says: I’ll feed on your breathWhat if I leave?She says: Without you I’ll be deadI need some sleepbut I can’t let her aloneand if I leaveI’d be afraid of coming homeI need some sleepbut I can’t let her alone

I’m losing youI’m aware of the words I’m usingLosing you…If you really have to knowI’m sorry but I have to let you go

I say: You need to eatShe says: I’ll feed on your breathWhat if I leave?She says: Without you I’ll be deadI need some sleepbut I can’t let her aloneand if I leaveI’d be afraid of coming home
