Mar 2017
IN THE HANDS OF A STRANGER
Did you take your soul to a land
Where those with hope do not linger
And apprenticeships have been served
With cuts and broken fingers
Oh these days of hardships swell
Cries the mother with howling baby
Who would care and who would dare
To risk their spare change lately
And now you walk on broken stones
With your feet wrapped in newspapers
But they say it's alternative news
Perhaps you'll learn the truth later
So is this the place your soul should be
In this land of hate and anger
Where you would place your fragile fate
In the hands of a stranger
He may be God he may be not
He could be a fallen angel
In this land of decay and rot
Who would trust a stranger
