I'm lying on the road waiting
Waiting for someone to come
Someone does come
But they walk on by
The another person comes
They stop and have a look
They look for a moment
Then walk away from me
I'm lying on the road waiting
Will someone come to help?
Or will they just ignore me?
Am I not worth helping?
But then he comes
He comes to help me
He reaches down, grabbing my hand
And picks me off the ground
He holds me close
And says he will never turn away
I thank him from my heart
But then I turn and walk away
