He finds himself standing there Arms helplessly outstretched A desperate plea to those who see With nothing he calls his own
He makes eye contact shamefully To those that pass him by He tries to speak words But is surrounded in silence
Excuse me sir-he hopelessly think Can you spare a dime? But these thoughts never leaves his tired mind
A man to his right Whistles as he walks by Hey homeless,he cries Get a job and stop whining
He pretends he cant hear him- As the passerby starts to smile You got yourself in this Now homeless get a life!
His feet are swollen From aimlessly standing all day He tries to walk But his legs dont comply
He hears laughter from the passerby As he turn to face the sun Inside his soul is aching Yet its another day only begun
As the day race on He finds more people walking by As if they try to hide The fact that hes there
Excuse me madam Can you help me please? But the tears in his eyes Is not enough to convince
She picks up her pace As she hurries on by Not today,she yells And then turns out of sight
He finds himself standing there Lord,how did i let this be? Is there still hope,he wonders Alone and Tearily Would death bring freedom From this misery? Is there nothing oh Lord You can do...
The sun starts to set in the sky Soon it will become night And as the cold wind picks his face He knows the streets he will pace
And within his eye He sees a darkness passing by Its just another day leaving Yet another plea dying in plain sight
