Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge The gap between you and I the gap that cant be filled You see me on the street everyday yet ignore me I suffer the starvation that humanity has forced upon me Everyone says they want to do something about the homeless Why not just do what Rudy Juliane did Put us all in jail Why suffer us yet another empty day When you lay down your weary head You dont think of us the ones you dont see Oh you see us with your eyes But you ignore us by your deed Some of the homeless may have chosen to be ware they are Some did not For those whom did not you see them as the bain of humanity You see them as the gum on the bottom of your shoe Something to scrape off on the curb and be forgotten Something to be discarded in the refuse container Something that you think really isnt there Something you can only hope to cast out with disdain Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge Suffer the starvation that humanity has forced upon me Suffer another empty day Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge Suffer me humanity, Suffer Me humanity, Suffer Me Humanity SUffer ME HUmanity, SUFfer ME HUManity, SUFFer ME HUMANity SUFFEr ME HUMANIty, SUFFER ME HUMANITy, SUFFER ME HUMANITYYYYYYYYY

Lest We Suffer
Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge The gap between you and I the gap that cant be filled You see me on the street everyday yet ignore me I suffer the starvation that humanity has forced upon me Everyone says they want to do something about the homeless Why not just do what Rudy Juliane did Put us all in jail Why suffer us yet another empty day When you lay down your weary head You dont think of us the ones you dont see Oh you see us with your eyes But you ignore us by your deed Some of the homeless may have chosen to be ware they are Some did not For those whom did not you see them as the bain of humanity You see them as the gum on the bottom of your shoe Something to scrape off on the curb and be forgotten Something to be discarded in the refuse container Something that you think really isnt there Something you can only hope to cast out with disdain Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge Suffer the starvation that humanity has forced upon me Suffer another empty day Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge Low I go to sleep under my filthy bridge Suffer me humanity, Suffer Me humanity, Suffer Me Humanity SUffer ME HUmanity, SUFfer ME HUManity, SUFFer ME HUMANity SUFFEr ME HUMANIty, SUFFER ME HUMANITy, SUFFER ME HUMANITYYYYYYYYY
