This is one of the things I've never understood about ORMs. They're not helpful for simple queries, but they're also not helpful for the most complex queries. When I've used ORMs in past (e.g., Active Record), we regularly needed to bypass the ORM to write raw SQL for complex queries in order to get the best performance.
