What would it be like to starve to death

Child hosts the parasite
Against his will, against his hope
Cries for help are lost in dark
Against this foe he cannot cope
He is ravaged, he is weary
He is twisted by the fury
Of the pain of his starvation
Greed will cancel his salvation

What would it be like to starve to death

What time is breakfast time
When will the hungry eat
What time is dinner time
When will the hungry eat

There's enough for everyone
But power dictates where the sun
Will shine and where the rain will fall
And where the grain will grow at all
Famine of compassion
Leaders meet to choose
Influential power bushel
Starving masses lose
