Skid Row

Now I thought I'd seen it all
Living my life behind a wall
Some of these people don't got a stall
Some of them lost it all

Crack gives you a sense of love
Meth makes your face smile
Look through the bottle it distorts love
The needle only gives them a smile

Love is hard to come by
And it's even harder to hide
Society doesn't give, they take
Advantage of the struggles for their own sake

Oh how can we ignore this hell
Corrupted in the depths they swell
the struggles they shine bright
Hidden in their world they fight

I took a trip out to skid row
The place they call a home
It ain't real, they just roam
In the depths of the catacomb

Oh the smell of despair
Fills the air
Struggling for a glass of wine
And I'm stressed over a fine

They just need something I mean
LA it's a money-filled ring
Glitz and glam and drink
Wasted money on the useless things

Oh how can we ignore this hell
Corrupted in the depths they swell
Oh the struggles they shine bright
Hidden in their world they fight

It's kid row they say
The place where the body pays
Broken dreams never change
Nobody remains the same

Oh how can we ignore this hell
Corrupted in the depths they swell
Oh the struggles they shine bright
Hidden in their world they fight
