Hungry World

The world in which we're living

Has never paused in it's giving

And all the things which we perceive

Are not really as they seem

To tell the truth, I've never questioned why

You may see it in my pupils as I lie

To steal another heartbeat, and another breath

Would be cheating new born babies of their death

So I lick my wounds, and trample them underneath

To feed the hungry world below my feet
