Hunger

swimming in the shallow end
you won¹t drown but you won¹t live
wading through the daily mire
safe and sound - uninspired

walking the well trodden line
you won¹t get lost but you won¹t find
anything not found before
enough for some - i want more

what does not kill me make me stronger
what does not fill me makes me hunger

feel that drive - deep inside
feel that drive - come alive

living in the comfort zone
you won¹t get hurt but you won¹t know
what it is to be alive
what it means to feel that drive

hunger drives me on

i hunger for intelligence
i hunger for experience
