Chase the Feeling Lyrics

It takes one to know one, baby
I know how you feel
You got your hunger
And some problems that are real

And you're dealing with some demons
Who are driving you insane
And I've seen them drag you screaming
Down the hallways of your brain

And you got loaded again
Ain't you handsome when you're high
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die

Let it right on in there, baby
Let it run your life
Let it run your children off
And let it run your wife

Let it take the joy you love
And turn it to despair
You know you knew better, baby
You just didn't care

'Cause you were loaded again
Ain't you handsome when you're high
Whoa, nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die

Blame it on the moonlight, baby
Think of number one
Tangled up in two
When you were shining like the sun

With a pretty piece of hunger
Who was younger than her eyes
On the scale of cosmic thunder
It's a wonder you're alive

And you were loaded again
Ain't you handsome when you're high
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die

I think this song is about dealing with his alcoholism. He is singing it to himself.

For us non-native speakers: what does he mean with:

  • “number one”? Sex?

  • “a pretty piece of hunger”? A very thin girl?
