My Side of Town (Hear the Cry)

Another day for her on the streets with no wind
Wishing life could rewind, start all over again
A second chance to escape
Her side of town

She can't remember before she was taken away
What it must've been like with a family name
So they digged it in there
On her side of town

If anyone could forgive her
'Cause she'd forgive herself

Will anybody hear her cry
Can anybody save her life
Have these been lost, so long forgot
On their side of town

His hands got cold, they have no one to hold
And yeah the system has failed, no one cares for a soul
'Cause now his bed is made on the ground
That's his side of town

Is there love somehow that money can buy
Somebody around who won't leave them to fight
A hand to pull them out
On this side of town

Will anybody hear his cry
Can anybody save a life
Have these been lost, so long forgot
On that side of town

Is there any hope tonight
Only that they just survive
Can you hear the cry for refuge now
On their side of town

We need more than our guilty feelings
If we love them, we'd give ourselves

Will anybody hear the cry
Can anybody save a life
Will anybody hear the cry
Can anybody save a life
Have these been lost, so long forgot
On their side of town

Is there any hope tonight
Or will they just survive
Can you hear their cry for refuge now
On their side of town

If you're not listening
How you gonna hear it
If you're not searching
How you gonna find them now
On their side of town

If you're not listening
How you gonna hear it
If you're not searching
How you gonna save them now
Oh, on their side of town
