For the Homeless and the Helpless...
You're alone.
You always have been.
You have no home.
No next of kin.
People see you.
People gawk.
People pass through.
All around the block.
They spare some change.
It goes to booze.
They have no range.
Of what it's like to lose.
Everything you've had.
It's all gone.
It doesn't make sense.
For you've done no one wrong.
You're just lost.
That's all, you see.
With some help you can get back.
To where you used to be...
