As I stroll steadily
I can see, see that street
Where we met behind the shed
Don't look ahead
I feel like I'm not alive
I'm sure that I'm still asleep
Don't wake me up
I've lost my job
Can't look ahead
And although I'm waiting for
Something in my life to come around
I can never ask for more
I'm not worth it anyway
I'm not worth it anyway
In this life I walk on by
And no-one's ever asked me why
Why I walk a lonely path
I'll show you
I'll show you
When the truth is clear to me
But would they care
Surely not
A scream for help's not enough
I am just as worthless as a toothless shark
Do people see the things I see
When I ache endlessly
Turning heads make me feel dead
Won't look ahead
I could always ask for more
But I know that nothing comes for free
A child sleeps on the street
Why should anyone care for me
Why should anyone care for me
In this life I walk on by
And no-one's ever asked me why
Why I walk a lonely path
I'll show you
I'll show you
When the truth is clear to me
