Under Streetlights

People staring at their feet
When I pass them on the street
Being ignored is so much worse
Than being hated
So I had to move away
Took the early morning train
But I never really felt
That I made it
You don’t know how it hurts
When there’s no hope and you’re cursed
To be living alone with birds
A fallen angel that god deserts
My whole life it went downhill
Never again I’ll feel a thrill
Don’t believe there ever was
A free will
Feeding pigeons at the park
In a city that is strange to me
I will be here after dark
Under streetlights
You don’t know how it hurts
When there’s no hope and you’re cursed
To be living alone with birds
A fallen angel that god deserts
