Never Go Hungry

It’s a long way back
From where I’ve fallen from
It’s a very hard fall
It’s a very cruel town
And my dress is torn
And I’ve got no jewels
And I’m hungry for
A life a little less cruel
Some dignity
Not too much sorrow
Just a little bit of hope
Hold out for tomorrow
Oh I don’t care what it takes, my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don’t care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
It’s a long ride home
And my head is bowed
And you’re no comfort to me now
And it’s fully loaded
And it’s set on stun
At least I know
That I have won
And my wig’s on crooked
And I’ve got no shoes
I rock back and forth
And I wait for you
Oh I don’t care what it takes, my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don’t care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
And out of it all
I have survived
From the fires of hell
I am alive
Sin it crushed your spirit
Survived this mess you’ve made
Oh god can you hear us?
You’re my salvation day
And it’s time for me, yeah
To take a stand
And it’s time for me, yeah
To be a man
And I don’t care what it takes, my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don’t care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
And the phoenix she rises
She is sure to descend
She will never go hungry, go hungry again
And you’re looking to me
More and more like a godsend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again
And we owe each other nothing
There’s no one left here to offend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again
