Lyrics
Hungry Child
Cory & Teri Feaser (C)2007
I sat upon a busy street
watching life pass beneath my feet
Swirling into darkness
down into the deep
into a bleeding cesspool
where empty hearts remain
where watered down humanity
writhes around in pain
I was such a hungry child
running fast & running wild
running to or running from
running just to run
I craved the food of knowledge
I longed for just a bite
searching for days & countless miles
I was never satisfied
I thirsted & I hungered
& when my life grew dim
the only place left to go
was buried deep within
when I dove into the deep
I found a brand new world
a table lay before me
my hunger was no more
at last my heart is satisfied
and as I walk I smile
my path is now filled with joy
& each step is worthwhile
I was such a hungry child
running fast & running wild
running to or running from
running just to run
I found life down in the deep
on a dark & desperate day
when the only thing that I had left
was mine to grasp or take away
hungry child
