lonely side of life

Singer:maverick sabre

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

hunger

poverty was something this young boy was never meant to see

so how's he living free?

brothers

mothers

fathers

sisters dying in the heat so helplessly

now what's he meant to be?

tv cameras

news photography portray this boy as something mean

down in new orleans

but this young boy just needs something quick to eat

that's why he's doing robberies

out in the street

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

no wonder we're called the dying youth

the dying age and it's the truth

jealousy and greed just pollute

and no one seems to help or dilute

the situation

just point the blame

we're the ones withering away

and killing each other every day

living our lives for the change

but all we seem to see is crime and aids

and all we seem to see is life just wasted

i'm feeling jaded

silent pain

but smiles in people's faces

smiles in people's faces

inside they hide it

inside they chase it

our minds

our souls

it's the young ones that are growing in this war-ridden world

yet we're the ones sitting in unheard

their words are falling on deaf ears

life just wasted

feeling jaded

silent pain

but smiles in people's faces

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind

all the little kids left running in the street

they'll find the lonely side of life

alone in time you'll find

there's a soul inside is blind
