Of Mice & Men - The Hunger Lyrics






Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again

We kill, to war, to murder, to hurt
Scorch the skies and poison the earth
And watch the stumbling efforts to partially fix it all again
Time has cracked, the warning sirens have faded
It's coming.
Either hell above, or heaven below,
The board has been set, your bed has been made,
Lie in it, as you realize you can't eat your money,
It is nothing!

Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again

Rat race… Maze… Occupied… Blind… Sheep…
Save us, save us, save us,
There's an answer to this, that has walked the earth,
The first was to warn, to teach, to lay down a life.
(Sacrifice!)
But the leaders of man convoluted it all,
Sticking fingers of their virus into all that is pure,
And they dig, and they dig, and they dig, and they dig!

Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again

We were the hungry, you fed us poison
We were the silent and you kept speaking
We were the hungry, you fed us poison
We were the empty, and you kept taking
We were the silent and you kept speaking
So don't you, don't you look away

Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again
Open up your eyes and start to take it in
And maybe you'll begin to feel like I feel, once again

    This sounds like Tool with Three Days Grace

  2. A.... M....

    The sound 😀

  3. I.... R....

    BADASS SONG !!!

  4. L.... W....

    3 years ago I hit a severe depression with due to taking poor decision making and the worst heartbreak of my life. As of now, I'm 3 years behind in life financial and life wise. I use to put this quite frequently and it did make me feel a bit better. I'm grateful to be still alive and things are are in the process of getting better.
    Whatever you're going through, I'm rooting for you. Don't give up

  5. m.... b....

    I've been up your ass ^^

  6. A.... M....

    Nice song

  7. d.... ....

    No thanks. Their new album is going in a better direction but this was definitely the low point for OM&M

  8. F.... G....

    Marilyn manson mixed with tool

  9. K.... G....

    i actually love this album
    i loved om&m before and it not bad at all.

  10. r.... ....

    I actually thought the album was alright. not phenomenal, but alright

  11. N.... F....

    This Album Rocks , Seen them at download and they were EPIC!

  12. I.... ....

    Lovig this one and Away

  13. S.... ....

    I'll be honest, while Cold World is my least favorite OM&M album, this is my favorite track.

  14. R.... ....

    "I've been up your ass and start to take it in"

  15. C.... 1....

    I Love this song, make me feel like im a superstar in the ring

  16. L.... A....

    Maynard should've feat in this song

  17. w.... ....

    I dont understand why i didnt love this right away!

  18. T.... W....

    Sounds like a mixture of Tool and Drowning Pool

  19. T.... I....

    Definetly their best song ever !!!

    T.... I....

    TheInfernity HELL YEAH BUD !!!

  20. m.... ....

    I'm really liking this song! Don't really care about who it sounds like, it's fucking awesome!

  21. U.... ....

    the more i listen to this album... the more i love about it
    this band is just incredible.

  22. �.... F....

    did austin leave om&m?

  23. B.... D....

    how did i get on linkin park

  24. T.... B....

    BADASS SONG RIGHT HERE !!!

  25. R.... K....

    im glad austin got to relax a bit in this album with all the screaming and such having negatives on his health

  26. W.... S....

    in my opinion this and Real were the only good songs on this album, no hate but it's just not my cup of tea

  27. H.... C....

    my new fave song

  28. R.... W....

    GETTING TOOL VIBES AND ITS KICK ASS

  29. A.... C....

    Damn, they grew up. I'm glad to see them talking about real issues in this world. They've woke the fuck up, I love seeing this trend in alot of these bands. This world had gotten so warped by major corporations and people need to "open up their eyes and start to take it in...". I respect these guys for writing music like this. Only way to do something about the corruption is to spread awareness.

  30. D.... 1....

    Anyone else think this sounds like pushit by tool? Still a Great song tho

  31. a.... ....

    This album is good as any, get over yourselves and accept that they've changed their style a little, but that doesn't mean they stopped being amazing, that either just means you're stuck in the past or you're being an ignorant ass

  32. S.... M....

    😍🤘👍❤

  33. G.... M....

    Aaron's vocals sounds like the opening to a Tool song. Lol. I like it.

  34. T.... ....

    I actually quite like this album

  35. M.... C....

    If you don't like this album then I suggest the following:
    1) Take a break from metalcore
    2) Start listening to some alternative metal bands like Deftones and Breaking Benjamin
    3) Come back and rethink your thoughts on this album

    M.... C....

    Mark Canales agreement

    M.... C....

    I couldn't tell if that was an insult to alternative metal or not :p

  36. x.... ....

    I didnt like some of the songs at first, but actually trying listening to the lyrics this album is actually really good and im still their fan 😊

  37. D.... ....

    Personally, I love OM&M forever, doesn't matter what say some shitty people's keep do this work, for us. WE LOVE OM&M

  38. B.... A....

    this song is sick as fuck

    B.... A....

    Beth Harbosky This song is BEAST !!!

  39. O.... M....

    everyone crying about this album are a bunch of new gen kids this shit sounds like tool and if you dont like tool or think they are good you have never been really into this type of music if you want to complain go listen to some memphis may fire or something lmao stfu

  40. A.... w....

    I like Austin singing very much

  41. D.... O....

    yay tool

  42. D.... 1....

    It does sound like Tool. Sounds good. Better than TDWP's new album.

  43. D.... R....

    this the best albume i have ever herd

  44. T.... T....

    Tool anyone

  45. P.... ....

    anyone else think of Tool when listening to this?

  46. H.... ....

    I don't know if it's because this track reminds me of tool or what but this is my favourite track of the new album

  47. G.... M....

    Huh, Chevelle?

    G.... M....

    obviously that is sarcasm.

  48. J.... A....

    this album sounds like a dulled version of BMTH's entire Sempiternal record.

  49. P.... V....

    First 30 seconds are definitely inspired by "The Pot" by Tool

  50. M.... ....

    Who are you to wave your fing... Wait, what?

  51. J.... G....

    really different but still good sounds kind of like tool

  52. S.... ....

    I dont understand how people dont like this album

  53. C.... M....

    i miss the flood *sighe*

  54. J.... V....

    Instead of criticizing an artist for how THEY choose to make THEIR music, maybe make your own. I love this, lyrics and sound is incredible.

  55. t.... v....

    my favorite so far 😭❤ ...my future is bright with them

  56. L.... C....

    So... What time signature is the chorus?

    L.... C....

    the time signature is basic 4/4

    L.... C....

    The whole song is in 4/4

    L.... C....

    Gamakichi really? It doesn't make sense to me although you can count it in 4/4

    L.... C....

    The chorus goes 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2, which is 8 beats

  57. K.... C....

    I like all there album's any time they keep comeing with new music and idea's some rock band maybe can get the jod done that's just me but . I we all love the music so know but is very amazing song.
    thank god for rock&matal music becaues let me put to you this way hip hop now suck so bad is not funny. at all so be very happy for now oh one more thing keep up the awesome good work.

  58. S.... I....

    The clean vocalist's old band "Jammie's elsewhere" was amazing.

  59. P.... C....

    1:02
    Best part. Miss Austin's screams

  60. M.... E....

    this album is fucking litt

  61. m.... y....

    I swear I thought the first line was saying saying "I've been up your ass"

  62. t.... s....

    love it. definitely a change, but great. if you don't like it, don't argue and bash others for liking it, just find what you like and go on.

  63. B.... P....

    Anyone who says this album sucks isn't a real Of Mice & Men fan. If you were, you'd enjoy everything they put out there, not just certain songs or albums.

  64. T.... ....

    WTF, this sounds nothing like TOOL, this is trash,TOL is awesome

  65. V.... ....

    Guys, what happened to you?

  66. C.... ....

    please i want the next album to be the best ..
    dont fail us cuz this album wasnt the best...
    we appreciate your hard work but it wasnt worth

  67. A.... L....

    does sound like they went for like a heavy Tool like rhythm I think they demolished it

    A.... L....

    human resources are depleting and we're growing and media blinds the public listen to the words you can't eat your money... greedy sheeps

  68. M.... S....

    you can feel the A Perfect Circle influence

  69. J.... T....

    primer comentario en español :3

  70. M.... ....

    Does anyone else think this sounds like TOOL at some points?

  71. D.... K....

    it sounds more like Tool on this song i can hear the sound layout

  72. M.... T....

    Am I the only one who here's so much Chevelle is this album??? Not that it's bad though.

  73. N.... K....

    this album is a more laid back more of a chill album i kinda like it lol

  74. E.... A....

    That intro has been stuck in my head for days

  75. A.... K....

    This song will be drum covered in my channel...

  76. C.... d....

    Of Tool and men

  77. D.... M....

    This was a horrible change. 2009-2012 OM&M RIP

  78. L.... J....

    Definietly agree with everyone else on the tool thing. But anyone who dislikes this band and there sound gets the boot in my opnion ive loved this band sense i heard the first song and will continue to love this band. Rock on OM&M!

  79. J.... ....

    Hey Chester, no one told me you joined om&m

  80. B.... m....

  81. R.... ....

    I feel like you're once again the shit of mice and men.
    Fucking love it

  82. P.... ....

    Eh. Whatever happened to this band?

  83. K.... C....

    I dig this Album is new rock so the way how your have hate is not that bad so stop bitchin ok ok

  84. O.... ....

    I get major Maynard James Keenan vibes from this song. More APC than Tool bit Maynard nonetheless.

    O.... ....

    Was down here seeing if anyone else thought that like I did lol

    O.... ....

    +Thomas James Same.

    O.... ....

    OffLeatherWings fuck yes I was gonna say it kinda sounds like pushit by tool

    O.... ....

    I just found out about this song/group by watching a highlights video of the man in your profile pic vs Kazuchika Okada!

    O.... ....

    I felt that way too...i cant remember the songs name but intro had me...pointing my finger going wait justa sec

  85. T.... S....

    ''Open up your eyes....and you'll see that I'm not perfect'', oh wait wrong song.

  86. R.... G....

    It think it sounds like KING 810 at some parts the way the singer sings real low but the tool vibe is there too

  87. A.... ....

    It sounds like Tool

  88. K.... C....

    very nice song guys.

  89. A.... A....

    This really relates to what's going on now in the world

  90. I.... D....

    favorite song so far!

  91. D.... i....

    Share with me only

  92. N.... V....

    There is so many triggered people here saying "if you don't like the change then leave." Those people are here because they are listening to a band they have listened to for years. I am still on the fence with this. I do like the sound but it is what we fell in love with that made us love OM&M. Like the difference between Second and Serbering for example and this are dramatic. There is no denying it. And people are missing it

  93. A.... Z....

    stop with the vibes

  94. k.... S....

    I love this, guys. I love the emotion behind each song. There is a story for each one, and to hear it unfold in the album is amazing. Love you guys. \(^-^)/

  95. V.... ....

    worse than restoring force

  96. I.... S....

    you people need to grow the fuck up..this? is of mice and men, regardless of sound it is their music if you want to be stuck in the previous years by all means go be the person you were years ago..Because they certainly aren't, music changes get over it

  97. Z.... M....

    definitely my favorite track on the album. people really need to get used to bands changing. the same stuff just gets boring after 4 albums

  98. I.... ....

    Best part about this album is when it finishes and The Flood starts up.

  99. A.... S....

    they should've listened to the fans and went back to the old sound, this happened.

  100. C.... R....

    Every single song is beautiful. I can't say anything bad about it because it isn't!
