Lyrics Patrick Wolf

Patrick Wolf

Theseus

So once you've killed the minotaur

How you gonna find your way out of the maze

Here the jealous hand of bitter men

Carve the meat before the table is laid

And they are hungry, they are hungry for you

And they are hungry, they are hungry for you

With an appetite so insatiable

They are hungry, they are hungry for you

The warm thread of love leads you to freedom

Once the hero's deed is done

You leave her lying without a parasol

In the slow solitaire sun

And she is hungry, she is hungry for you

And she is hungry, she is hungry for you

With an appetite so generous

She is hungry, she is hungry for you

No surrender to a lover

Or the wars of the news

Of many blisses to uncover

A black sail billows, the sun hits a blade

And you are hungry, you are hungry for you

And you are hungry, you are hungry for you

With an appetite so dangerous

You are hungry, you are hungry for you
