Brick Windows

Recession
Depression
Desolate, with few possessions
Rejection
Deflection
Please may I get your attention
Oppression
Misconception
Every day, an object lesson
Don't mention discretion
Hey man! I have a question

If you turn away to greet me
Roll your eyes to see me
Face down to the ground and walk away
What's it like to be me
Mister, can you hear me
Thank you anyway

I'm breathing
Heart beating
Your fellow human being
All seeing
All hearing
Can't tell you how I'm feeling
Not preaching
It's freezing
Stand up and help the kneeling
I'm bleeding
You're leaving
I guess you have your reasons

If you turn away to greet me
Roll your eyes to see me
Face down to the ground and walk away
What's it like to be me
Hey! can you hear me
Thank you anyway

If you hide your ears to listen
Shrug and keep your distance
Maybe I'm not here, just walk away
They want to keep me hidden
No walls around this prison
For you and I, it's groundhog day
Turn away to greet us
Close your eyes to see us
Face down to the ground and walk away
What's it like to be us
Mister, can you hear us
Thank you anyway
