Lyrics
Look Away
Right there in the alley, a man is sad and cold
I hope it doesn't snow tonight, the poor old guy is way too old
Right behind that garbage bin, another man wonders why
In a world that has so much to give, it always seems to pass him by
Look away, we try not to see them
Look away, we wish they'd disappear
Look away, don't want to think about it
We turn our heads not today
Look away, look away, look away
Every city has them, there's a whole world in the lane
And if you're going to close your eyes, you're never going to see their pain
Dirty cans and bottles, the life line of the poor
The rattle of those shopping carts, and the awful stench that they endure
It shouldn't be so hard, to try to live a life
But when your luck is down and out, your soul is cut by a jagged knife
Look away, we try not to see them
Look away, we wish they'd disappear
Look away, don't want to think about it
We turn our heads not today
Look away, look away, look away
I guess they don't have families, or anyone to care
Cause how else could they lose their way, to end up in despair
Does anybody care, it's like they're never there
Look away, look away
Look away, we try not to see them
Look away, we wish they'd disappear
Look away, don't want to think about it
We turn our heads not today
Look away, look away, look away
