Everyday People

Listen.
Do you hear her cry?
Feel.
Can you feel the pain at his hands?
Walk.
Watch her walk away.
Those people you see.
The lost and the broken.
The poor and the needy.
Why must you be so greedy.
This love you’ve been given, 
Why can’t you share it around.
How many times have you been driven
Driven out of town
Those who watch and those who stare
They need your comfort and your care
She’s the one with a “Last Chance” label
And he’s the one underneath the table.
Watch them as they beat him down
Driving him closer and closer to his next meltdown
She’s stuck in the bathroom
Removing the “old” and becoming a “new”
So please, the next time you see them
Stop them.
Hug them.
Take their hand and guide them.
Cause their everyday people.
Who need a little help from everyday people like you.
