Hungry ears by Ivar Sigurbergsson

All these words flying through the air
pick some out, does anybody care?
you can find what you've been missing
if you just slow down and listen

Certain words are just a distraction
they produce a knee-jerk reaction
but patience can keep you from leaning
and uncover the actual meaning

You've got to have hungry ears
if you want to defeat your fears
you've got to have hungry ears
to get through the difficult years
you've got to have hungry ears

Open your eyes and widen your scope
and you'll see an abundance of hope
the choice is yours, a blaze of glory
or the wisdom of the whole story

You've got to have hungry ears
if you want to defeat your fears
you've got to have hungry ears
to get through the difficult years
you've got to have hungry ears
