Hungry Ghost Lyrics
["If you are aware of a state which you call 'is,'
Or reality, or life, this implies another state called 'isn't.'
or illusion, or unreality, or nothingness, or death.
There it is, you can't know one without the other.
And so, as to make life poignant,
It's always got to come to an end.
That is exactly, don't you see, what makes it lively.
Liveliness is change, is motion.
And motion is going 'nnnnnnneeeeeaaw!,' like this,
See, they fall out.
You can see you are always at the place where you always are,
Only, it keeps appearing to change."]

I just love that the song is so short(the intro takes up half the song) and ends pretty abruptly I'm always wishing that it was longer. But that's the whole point of the song.
You know, I always agreed with you that I wish it was longer. I never really embraced its shortness like you have. That's truly is the whole point of the song. Well put!

I think it "And" not "or"
