Everything’s there – but for you
It doesn’t exist if you can’t see
So like the rest, you look past me
Dare not speak of that we don’t know
Ignorance reigns wherever you go
Souls lost in the open - waiting to find
Any little peace of mind
Unspoken gazes across the street
Fearful people frightened to meet
Hated and shunned for what was their lot
Serving them right to get what they got
For who would play such tricks on their kind
Does it not matter if they can’t mind?
Torn away deftly without a word
Caste asunder and stripped from the herd
We are they and they are us
Brethren together riding the bus
Nobody speaking - just fight or flight
Taking us somewhere into the night
Goodnight my friends, oddfellows all
Invisible people in line we fall
If you don’t look we might leave you alone
Unless of course it’s the life that you own
