hear them crying

---

a star alight
on a lonely night
shining down on the world around me
tries to survive
through the dark outside
but, there's no hiding
there's no denying
even though i close my eyes
i hear them crying
a cardboard box
on a cold sidewalk
offering only the palest shelter
under their rocks
whilest the night storm knocks
the rain is biting
the winds igniting
oh, oh
when i try to close my eyes
i hear them crying
even though i'm safe inside
i hear them crying
hear them crying
hear them crying
even though i'm safe inside
i hear them crying
a young one tries
but, he cannot fly
gravity holds, whilest the sky is mocking
soon he will die
with no sense of pride
the years surround him
the tears have found him
oh, oh, oh
when i try to close my eyes
i hear them crying
even though i'm safe inside
i hear them crying
hear them crying
hear them crying
