Lyrics
Some of us
Some of us are lonely
Some of us are lost
Some of us are overwhelmed
Some of us will go crazy trying to ease the pain
It's a tough and sturdy world
Where happiness don't come cheap
But the price's well worth the risk
If you're ever in need
Every night there's a desperate soul who gives up hope
Well tonight I sit and watch
From prince Arthur Street corner
On the sidewalks all around
People wear their best faces
As I peak within their eyes
I sense there's something missing
There's a sadness far behind
People need a sense of purpose
Every night there's a desperate soul who overdoses
Some of us are lonely
Some of us are lost
Some of us are overwhelmed
Some of us will go crazy trying to ease the pain
Well you know you're not alone
As you hear this voice sing
We are millions out there
Who suffer, suffer in silence
So brothers and sisters
Take care come on! take care of your own
Before they do the unthinkable
Cause they feel so alone
Every night there's a desperate soul who overdoses
Every night there's a desperate soul who gives up hope
