The coldest Night i ever knew

Was standing in the rain with you

Hardened hearts refuse to see

This empty soul who sings for me

Songs of sadness, in his own words

Ignored by all, who feeds the birds

And so they quickly pass him by

With fleeting glance, …. unwelcomed eye

The longest night i ever knew

Was standing in the snow with you

The fractals of a broken life

Two children and a loving wife

And how addiction came to stay

The thief, that stole his life away

And nothings changed, and nothing will

Stagnant time, ….. standing still

His mind was torn apart

By a war, fought in our name

So many die on frozen streets

Don’t make him do the same

(oh it’s just insane)

This city has no love to share

Nottt many people seem to care

But yes, there are those special few

Whose deeds and love come shining through

The ones who feed the ones unknown

That really care, for those alone

That ease the pain of homeless plight

And warm, the coldest, longest night

The saddest night i ever knew

Was when they said your life is through

The stars seemed brighter through my tears

Your songs now linger in my ears

For some the worlds a broken place

It leaves its mark upon your face

Deep emotions, from homeless words

Ignored by those, who feed the birds.
