At the bottom of every barrel You'll find the broken and the cracked The people who live in shadows Those who don't know how to act The backward and inverted The awkward and the shy Just people looking for answers Just people asking why The outcast and the lonely The scared or the abused A person without a friend Or a friend who's been misused Just people looking for people To fill a hollow hole The empty who hunger and thirst Or maybe a tired soul At the bottom of every barrel And maybe you didn't know it But if you're looking hard enough You'll even find a poet

The Bottom of the Barrel
At the bottom of every barrel You'll find the broken and the cracked The people who live in shadows Those who don't know how to act The backward and inverted The awkward and the shy Just people looking for answers Just people asking why The outcast and the lonely The scared or the abused A person without a friend Or a friend who's been misused Just people looking for people To fill a hollow hole The empty who hunger and thirst Or maybe a tired soul At the bottom of every barrel And maybe you didn't know it But if you're looking hard enough You'll even find a poet
