Strays Songtext
von Killing the Day

Hear us howling at your door
Hear us crying in the wind
Hear us fighting in the alleys
Just to feel something

We are hungry
We are broken
We are not worth it
The mob has spoken

We are strays
Come on, let us in
We are strays
We are begging
We are strays
And we need love
We need love like everybody does

We′ve been alone so long
That we'll never fit in
We′ll never belong
We'll never have nothing


We are tattered and bruised
We are tired and sick
We are dying for nothing
And you know it

We are strays
Come on, let us in
We are strays
We are begging
We are strays
And we need love
We need love like everybody does

Some throw us scraps
Others put out traps
Our lives collapse
And you don't like how we act

Well, what do you expect?
Our lives are wrecked
And no one protects us
From a culture of neglect

If the weather doesn′t kill us
We′re bought and sold to god knows who
Our families split up
And put in a zoo


If we don't end up in a dungeon
If we don′t get shot and killed
Our best hope is to be put to work
And live a life of dreams unfulfilled

We are strays
Come on, let us in
We are strays
We are begging
We are strays
And we need love
Yes, we need love
We need love
We need love like everybody does
Like everybody does
Yeah, everybody does
We are strays
Strays
We are strays
Strays
We are strays
