Spiritual Hunger - Tim Finn

The truth lies

And in the movie house the gods die

Through empty streets the ancient rain cries

And in your quiet room

You feel the pain start

Steel your small heart

I, I, I, I want (hear me now)

Spiritual hunger

The priest chokes

And Desperate Dan plays out the last post

While skinhead Buddhists chant for peace

And in the shadows

Feel the whole world turning

Spirits yearning

I, I, I, I want (hear me now)

Spiritual hunger

You tell me

There is no life beyond this day-dream

Don’t see the secrets in silence

Don’t hear the teardrops

Of the children crying Someone sighing

I, I, I, I want (hear me now)

Spiritual hunger
