standing on the corner clutching my st. christopher to keep from disappearing but i'm practically invisible
and i close my eyes i don't hear a sound i don't speak a word and i don't look down
cars and people pass me by so many smiling faces that hide away their desperate lives we all take our chances and take our places.
then i close my eyes i don't hear a sound i don't speak my mind and i don't look down
and i realize i'm still on the ground and i'm still alive but i don't look down
and the days go by i don't make a sound i sink into the silence but i don't look down i'm lost in time hoping to be found like some frightened child i don't look down and you're just like me scared of what's coming around i'm just like you i just don't look down
