On Your Own lyrics

Cold faces, lives left stranded Starved and empty handed Walk down the streets alone The only home they've known Since no one seems to care Apathy is everywhere They're begging to survive And keep themselves alive You're wasting your time The system is blind You have to fight On you own No rope, no rules to follow Who hears the sounds of sorrow? Despised by eyes that won't give Give them a reason to live Ignored by those in command No sympathy, no helping hand So as the days go by Young lives are left to die
