No Pity City

There's a sad boy on a corner
Wanting just some quarters
He has no home and no love
And no way to get some

There's a scared girl on a side street
Rouged cheeks, as the sky sleets
Walking mean streets, all for no sense
Shiv'ring in her fishnets

No Pity City
How fast can you zoom
Past those trapped in
Their dark cocoons

Boy rushes down the sidewalk
Brushes girl, but there's no talk
He sees himself in her eyes
As she does in surprise

No Pity City
So cold and so dark
How soon can you
Put out a spark

They take hands and they take flight
Soaring under moonlight
So loved and soulmates
Great monarchs of the street grate

No Pity City
How do you, how
Come just to aid those
Beyond help now

There's a lost teen on the corner
Longing for safe quarters
