I don't know who you are But I caught a sight of you Hands frozen before a warm dining place
A snowing freezing night I see you wear no shoes But you're standing on the street hoping to get high
You with the chapped hands You look in pain to me and Your bare feet are now full of cuts
Why don't you buy some shoes If you can pay for that All the mess you've been through won't fade away Why not buy some shoes You don't need to pay for that In this town no one cares about you but me
You like to talk on the phone In the phone box you feel safe Someone is on the line But no one touches you
You don't wanna talk about it So I won't force the issue I sense an edge when you talk of your childhood
You with the chapped hands You look in pain to me and Your bare feet are now full of cuts
Why don't you buy some shoes If you can pay for that All the mess you've been through won't fade away Why not buy some shoes You don't need to pay for that No one cares about you but me
Can you get over what they did to you Your scars won't disappear But you're still alive You are still alive
Open your eyes Look at the world Break from the nightmare A whole life awaits you No one can help you but you
Why don't you buy some shoes If you can pay for that All the mess you've been through won't fade away Why not buy some shoes You don't need to pay for that It's cold out no one can help you now but you But you But you
