[00:22.20]As I saw through the eyes of Portland one day
[00:27.46]There were so many homeless, they'd all gone astray
[00:32.70]They slept on the corners during the day
[00:38.13]As not to be harmed when the sun went away
[00:46.28]There were old ones and young ones, white ones and black
[00:51.94]They were all shapes and sizes with rags on their backs
[00:57.10]So many people mixed up in this stew
[01:02.11]With no place to go and nothing to do
[01:11.46]All of these homeless, where do they come from?
[01:15.83]In this land of plenty where nothing gets done
[01:21.42]To help those who are empty and unable to run
[01:26.54]Your tears and prayers won't help the homeless
[01:32.38]
[01:53.86]Some are mentally ill, some are higher than kites
[01:59.85]Selling their bodies as day turns to night
[02:04.97]Where are their loved ones, does anyone care?
[02:09.64]To be lost and alone in the middle of nowhere
[02:19.10]All of these homeless, where do they come from?
[02:23.57]In this land of plenty where nothing gets done
[02:28.78]To help those who are empty and unable to run
[02:33.90]Your tears and prayers won't help the homeless
[02:39.34]
[03:07.45]What will it take for this country to see?
[03:12.60]For the grace of God go they and not you and me
[03:17.49]The fallen and forgotten, who are down on their knees
[03:22.65]Living here in the gutters in this land of the free
[03:31.59]All of these homeless, where do they come from?
[03:36.27]In this land of plenty where nothing gets done
[03:41.82]To help those who are empty and unable to run
[03:46.86]Your tears and prayers won't help the homeless
[03:52.38]Your tears and prayers won't help the homeless
