You roam the streets with your six cans
and a pack of smokes you find somewhere
try to get some sleep on a park bench
till the cops make you leave and go someplace else
You pull your hat as low as you can
so they can’t see you and pretend
that they really know you, you can’t stand
their crooked smiles and their vicious laughs
You were something, reduced to nothing
You were born, born to lose it all
My shoe is off, my foot is cold
i have a bird that i like to hold
my hat is old, my teeth are gold
and all of the lies that i have told
Life tends to kick you while you’re still down
you might be broken but all heals with time
the future won’t be as bright, when all you crave is a spotlight
