Anthem To The Estranged Lyrics - Blessing In Disguise - Metal Church

Starved for destination, a beggar man by trade 

A desperate man needs more than someone else to blame 

Friendless he appears, he hides behind his tears 

For things he's lost or things he'll never have at all 

The forgotten man wanders misplaced in the world 

Obscurity is all the eye can see and I recall 

I'm all alone again 

As we pass on by and continue with our day 

Can we appraise the quality of life some other way? 

I'm all alone again 

When you take a longer look at someone on the run 

You may see reflections of yourself becoming one 

Take an extra moment when you find yourself at peace 

To think about your values and your own affluency 

Everything you've worked for and everything you've done 

May be thrown by the wayside and you're not the only one 

Everything around you may seen worn and overused 

But imagine yourself removed from all that you're used to 

All alone again 

Once an influential man, once was in his prime 

He spends his days repeating lines like, "Can you spare a dime?" 

Shunned by those loved you and by those who were your friends 

Can you adjust to a different life of living on the edge? 

The destitute find meaning in a different way of life 

The doorways that they dwell in are shelter in the night 

No shining crystal possessions set out for his display 

His purpose is to find the food to get him through the day 

All alone again 

Roaming aimless through the streets of supply and demand 

Once a gypsy disconnected, no more, no future plans 

Self discarded king of ruin, worthless to the world 

Fight to keep his sanity, his voice is never heard 

You may think it's thoughtless and his mind is on a string 

He always seems to find a reason to get him through the day 

All alone again 

He staggers down the alley to drink his spirits by himself 

As he prays to God that he wakes up somewhere else
