Insatiable (its Not Enough) Lyrics

INANNA: Now I've gotten everything I wanted, but I feel it's not what I need 



Was Dumuzi right when he said I loved to kill, and watch men bleed 



My mind is full of thoughts and things that I can't explain 



After all that I've been through I still feel that I have no name

But every time I want to love, they feed me hatred.... 







So I'll tear down their walls 



And I'll break down their doors 



I can't fill this hunger 



Oh, I've got to have more 



And no one can stop me.... 







I've been thinking about places I'd like to hold in my hand 



Once again my mind turns to Egypt, with its idle, golden lands 







I'd like to get my hands around the necks of t
