Can Anybody See Me
[Chorus]
London streets are paved with gold, that's what I've been told
No mention of the cold, gets into your bones, I'm freezing
And I wonder, can anybody see me?

[Verse 1]
A dirty sleeping bag to hold all that I possess
My life is in a mess, my body needs to rest
I don't sleep easy and I wonder, can anybody see me?

[Refrain]
All the politicians say, "Everything is fine"
As if homelessness is just a state of mind
They see the world through tunnel vision eyes
Quoting well-rehearsed lies, as if they can't see me

[Verse 2]
By the light of the day, I wander through this dirty town
My head held down , no homeward bound, no destination
And I wondеr, can anybody see me?

[Verse 3]
As the evеning falls, I'm looking for a place to lay my head
With the rest of the living dead, hoping we'll be fed by the old station
And I wonder, can anybody see me?
[Refrain]
All the politicians say, "Everything is fine"
As if homelessness is just a state of mind
They see the world through tunnel vision eyes
Quoting well-rehearsed lies, as if they can't see me

[Chorus]
London streets are paved with gold, that's what I was told
No mention of the cold, gets into your bones, I'm freezing
And I wonder, can anybody see me?
