The Loner

Life is so short, Life is so sweet

It is a real pity, That some people sleep on the street

You see them in alleys, You see them in parks

The ones whose lives  Have got no more spark

They say they are dead beats, The **** of the earth

But were they really like that, Right from their birth

They used to be happy, They used to be gay

They even had a Christmas and a happy birthday

But now their  a loner and who the hell cares

For people just spit or stand there and stare

But the loner just thinks, He's still got his mind

Just look in the mirror and see what 'you' dare find

Now years have past and the loner is dead

But there in his place, Now let it be said

Is the one who walked passed and he just spat

Justice or not, Is 'that' *** for Tat
