Empty Eyes

Empty Eyes

By: Bambi

Everywhere I go...

Everyone I see...

Empty eyes...

Staring back at me.

Riding on the bus...

Walking in the park...

Everybody struggling...

To get out of the dark.

Standing around in lines...

For loaves of day old bread...

Even working full-time...

Most folk just can't get ahead.

Everybody tired...

Everybody cries...

Looking for some hope...

Through very empty eyes.

Empty eyes everywhere...

We pretend not to see...

Everybody struggling...

Just like you and me.
