Street Youth

There are children out there with nowhere to go Who have to sit and freeze out in the snow They are the next victims of the street With nowhere to go but bad people to meet They are like the dead who have been forgot With no warm homes or proper food that is hot Instead they get sucked into doing drugs Or even transformed into terrible child thugs These children once loved in a good home Left out on the streets to live on their own So tell me the truth, is this what you wanted? A world of children whose thoughts get haunted Haunted by abuse and their drugs illusions By the alcohol and the phony delusions That their dreams are nothing but hopeless And their poor lives are totally wasted You tell me what you were thinking When saw one and could almost see their hopes sinking
