[Verse 1]
Close your eyes to the horror
Close your eyes to the pain
When you live in a box
No-one knows your name
Living in the street
Mom and kids with nothing to eat
Welfare hotels
Who says there's no place called Hell?
[Chorus 1]
I can see you
I can hear you
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins
[Refrain]
There but for the grace of God
There but for the grace of God
Who cares, who cares
Who cares, who cares
There but for the grace of God
There but for the grace of God
[Chorus 2]
Go you or I
Open your eyes
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
[Verse 2]
Invisible could be my name
Your excuses are so lame
Real pleas fall on deaf ears
Look away when I am near
Freezing cold in winter heat
Burning up can be a treat
Blisters breaking on my feet
At least I get a subway seat
[Chorus]
I can see you
I can hear you
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins
[Refrain]
There but for the grace of God
There but for the grace of God
Who cares, who cares
Who cares, who cares
There but for the grace of God
There but for the grace of God
[Chorus 2]
Go you or I
Open your eyes
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins
[Bridge]
Self help and preservation
Not now, I'm on vacation
Priority is you
And screw all those around you
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Now it's time for you to share
Indifference, you have to care
Deep inside you know it's true
How do I get through to you?
Open your eyes to the horror
Open your eyes to the pain
When you live in a box
No-one knows your name
[Chorus]
I can't see you
I can't hear you
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
Who cares wins
[Refrain]
There but for the grace of God
There but for the grace of God
Who cares, who cares
Who cares, who cares
There but for the grace of God
There but for the grace of God
[Chorus 2]
Go you or I
Open your eyes
You don't see me
You couldn't be me
