I stand on shaking knees,
empty eyes, empty cups, empty stomachs.
Ignored by the hustle,
by the busy business bustle,
by the "Don't go near him, 'cause he's dirty."
Pass by my dirty palms, my aching feet, my torn up clothes,
pass and think that I am nothing but leech on your world.
I've given up on talking
cause the strangers keep on walking,
and they never give me so much as a second thought.
Because I messed up,
or I never fought in Nam
or the family I feed isn't real.
My life's fucked up,
I know I need a haircut.
But I guess I'm just a shadow,
I'm a shadow,
I'm not real.
