lirik lagu lisa o'neill - homeless in the thousands (dublin in the digital age)

[verse 1]
homeless in the thousands
worsens everyday
this the state the dublin
in the digital age

[verse 2]
they were homeless in the dozens
when i was a kid
they say that things were bad then
but this is off grid

[verse 3]
is it cause my father
went and lost his way
when he lost his wages
out of dublin bay?

[verse 4]
is it cause my mammy
had me out of wedlock?
born in to a laundry
never did catch up..

[verse 5]
is it cause my landlord
can’t even look at me?
so high up on the ladder
they can’t see the streets
[verse 6]
i’m bеgging cause i’m hungry
i’m strung out cause i’m cold
i just want to lie down
and bе left alone

[spoken word: peter doherty]
no, it’s cause like, i calls it gods apples or gods fish type cause those times
ye know, it was a smaller, smaller type population
you could go get your own fish and apples
not like needing money an idea and that
i was laughing about it with my sister, man well she’s not my sister cause she’s asian
well, i know you can have an asian sister but it’s cause we were both put in the same foster care
same foster family, was saying right that even though we’ve been in care
we’ve both got kids who’s in care
no~one really cared like
like that bloke from the bbc, he was saying like, i should trust him
i said, i don’t need to trust you to talk to you about being homeless
because ye know, no~one trusted me and i never really trusted anyone, ye know
but i was laughing about it with my sister who’s not really my sister
yeah?
is that?

[verse 7]
some say change is coming
i say change has come
no one carries change in
their pockets anymore
[verse 8]
you might spare a moment
share some poor souls pain
meet them in the eyes at least
if you can’t spare change

[verse 9]
all our heroes would be reeling
and rolling in their graves
if they saw the state of
o’connell street today

[verse 1]
homeless in the thousands
worsens by the day
thiss the state of dublin
in the digital age

[verse 10]
as the rich get richer are they free?
they just as lost as you and me?
there’s a thousand cranes along the quays
keep building up, pushing down on me

[verse 11]
i was born into the liberties
got no clean clothes and nowhere to sleep
but i’m rich in soul and history
least i’m home in this poverty
[verse 12]
they are building a hospital it seems
5 star rooms but no room for me
i was born into the liberties
i’ve been 16 years sleeping on these streets
