It's a long way back
From where I've fallen down
It's a very hard fall
It's a very cruel town
And my dress is torn
And I got no jewels
And I'm hungry for
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 wing'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 defend
I will never go hungry
Go hungry again
And out of it all
I have survived
From the fires of hell
I am alive
Cynics crush your spirit
Survived this mess you've made
Oh, God, can you hear us?
You're my salvation, babe
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 God-sent
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
