[Verse 1]
One by one, the houses get stolen by corporate erosion
Winters come with nowhere to hide out
Don't sleep 'cause they'll find out
Nobody ever thinks they'll end up broken
'Til they're out there frozen
Screaming, "They're crazy"
'Til you're the one begging for food for your baby

[Chorus]
You don't see the pain, see the harm
See the carvings on their arm
See the truth, see the lives
See the severеd family ties
See the town wherе they reside
Money don't fall out from the sky
See the child, they have a mother
You just throw them in the gutter

[Verse 2]
No one's safe
The powers that be are so sick and deranged
Clean the streets
They lock them in jail and make them work for free
Nobody ever
Talks to their neighbor 'til they need a favor
Come to the forest and
Build your community, don't get immune to this

[Chorus]
Don't see the pain, see the harm
See the carvings on their arm
See the truth, see the lives
See the severed family ties
See the town where they reside
Money don't fall out from the sky
See the child, they have a mother
You just throw them in the gutter

[Bridge]
If everything's said and done and you're around, I'ma run
I'd rather die than be near you (Hahaha)
Evil is as evil does (Hahaha), y'all can just go get fu*ked (Hahaha)
We'll be haunting you, haunting (Haha), haunting you, haunting you

[Chorus]
Don't see the pain, see the harm
See the carving on their arm
See the truth, see the lives
See the severed family ties
See the town where they reside
Money don't fall out from the sky
See the child, they have a mother
You just throw them in the gutter

[Outro]
(Gutter)
(They'll end up broken 'til they're out there frozen)
