Lyrics

Feed Me (Live)

[Verse 1]

What's the point

It's your table

I alter my altar

For every mouthful

You're unable

For every mouthful

I hunger

[Chorus]

Feed me

Ooo, feed me

[Verse 2]

Don't give me that

It's your table

I grow by

Grow by inches

For every mouthful

You're living

For every mouthful

I'm running

[Chorus]

Feed me

Ohh, feed me

Ohh, feed me

[Verse 3]

Don't give me that

It's your table

I grow by

Grow by in inches

For every mouthful

You're living

For every mouthful

I'm running

[Chorus]

Feed me

Ohh, feed me

Feed me

Ohh, feed me

[Outro]

How fast do you run?

How fast can you run?
