Watching the old man's eye staring blind
Flash of the neon light - he's alive
Cruising the streets - barefoot and blue
Raises his hands and shouts at the moon
Why must I live by breaking the law
I sleep among rats, I'm naked and poor
Hungry and cold, and starving to death
Isolated by loneliness
Victims of society, why must we walk alone?
Stealing his way through the market square maze
Sits on the corner, counting the days
Begging for mercy and something to eat
Give me a hand, I'm begging you please
Something is wrong, a social decease
The wounds they won't heal, they're starting to bleed
Living in exile and banished by you
Give me a chance - I've paid my dues
Victims of society, why must we walk alone?
Look at all those lonely people
Tell me, where do they all belong?
Look at all those lonely people
They cry...
I can see an empty world where justice seems to crawl
Mother Earth, don't you hear your children try to call
Calling me, they're calling you
Take me by the hand
Together we will kneel down and pray
You're so alone
You're so alone
You're so alone
You're so alone
Look at all those lonely people
Tell me, where do they all belong?
Look at all those lonely people
They cry...
Screaming in anger, the crowd goes insane
Total destruction, there's blood down the drain
Working class heroes that fight for their rights
Only the strong, the strong will survive
Why must I live by breaking the law
I sleep among rats, I'm naked and poor
Hungry and cold, and starving to death
Isolated by loneliness
Victims of society, why must we walk alone?
Look at all those lonely people
Tell me, where do they all belong?
Look at all those lonely people
They cry...
We can change the world
