    The Ones That We Left Out

    I wake up and I look outside on a freezing winters day
    The darkening clouds have all poured down and washed the warmth away
    Just to be inside on a day like this it put things into perspective
    Some do not have what we take for granted and sleep unprotected
    From the cold that keeps us all down
    Seeking shelter in whatever can be found
    This home is not a welcome one at all
    Winter never seemed this cold before

    This tragedy
    (Marvel at the sight)
    Right in front of me
    (Of the world through their eyes)
    It’s all I see
    It’s all I dream about

    No sympathy
    (Try to understand)
    No empathy
    (Give a helping hand)
    Low mortality
    For the ones that we left out
    The ones that we left out

    A roof above to keep out the cold is a god-given right
    But not everyone’s warm and not everyone’s safe when try to sleep tonight
    Backfiring cars make for lullabies under the city sky
    Each passing day like the sands of time, how long left to survive?
    In this jungle made of concrete
    Facing the harsh laws of the street
    This life is not functional at all
    Being alive never seemed this hard before

    This tragedy
    (Marvel at the sight)
    Right in front of me
    (Of the world through their eyes)
    It’s all I see
    It’s all I dream about

    No sympathy
    (Try to understand)
    No empathy
    (Give a helping hand)
    Low mortality
    For the ones that we left out
    The ones that we left out

    I want to see like them to know
    What it is like to be unknown
    Where every day you’re all alone
    You can’t break free

    Do they not dream the same as we do?
    Do they not need the love that we do?
    Do they not see the world as we do?
    Can you answer me this

    This tragedy
    (Marvel at the sight)
    Right in front of me
    (Of the world through their eyes)
    It’s all I see
    It’s all I dream about

    No sympathy
    (Try to understand)
    No empathy
    (Give a helping hand)
    Low mortality
    For the ones that we left out
    The ones that we left out

    I want to see like them to know
    What it is like to be unknown
    Where every day you’re all alone
    You can’t break free
    You can break free
    You can break free
    You can break free
