Next Meal - Virgin Souls

Tumbling,

I fell over,

Shuffling,

I fell asleep,

Wondering,

Over and over,

About the company that I keep,

I can’t sleep if I steal,

But I can’t pay the rent,

Will I get my next meal,

From this cold pavement?

Sitting here,

With my hand out,

Splutter when I try to speak,

When I close my eyes,

I can’t sleep if I steal,

But I can’t pay the rent,

Will I get my next meal,

From this cold pavement?

I can’t see,

What’s concealed,

In all the words,

That are said,

And I’d be free,

From repeal,

If I just had a bed,

Coming in,

Think it over,

Cuts and grazes,

When I close my eyes,

I can’t sleep if I steal,

But I can’t pay the rent,

Will I get my next meal,

From this cold pavement?

I can’t see,

What’s concealed,

In all the words,

That are said,

And I’d be free,

From repeal,

If I just had a bed,

I can’t sleep if I steal,

But I can’t pay the rent,

Will I get my next meal,

From this cold pavement?

I can’t sleep
