|
A teenage throw-away |
|
Sleeping on the street |
|
Addiction paradise |
|
You cannot defeat |
|
Each day a nightmare |
|
Surviving, only hope |
|
Gotta get some food to eat |
|
Gotta get the dope |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
No one to help me |
|
They don't wanna know |
|
There's nowhere to run to |
|
Nowhere to go |
|
No protection from the heat |
|
And no protection from the rain |
|
No asylum from the freeze |
|
Just need to kill the pain |
|
Hiding from the bad kind, |
|
The abuse and the rape |
|
Given up and almost dead, |
|
Taken all you can take |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Solo] |
|
These are forgotten children, without a choice |
|
Slaves to a broken system, without a voice |
|
It's time for sanctuary, give them a chance |
|
finance a place for them to end this dance |
