Kristen Mark Westwood - Even Dogs Lyrics

Every time they come around
It's the same damn story
"Shutter windows, keep them out
Wait here with the dogs"
So it came as no surprise
Your door was never open
Couldn't help but wonder why
You came to town at all
Oh don't you people see?
Even dogs under table
Eat the children's crumbs
I'm coming to you needy
But I'm standing up taller
With my eyes cast down
So I'm outside on the ground
And you and I are strangers
Took the courage I had left
And knocked upon your door
My people need you now
We need a healer
So would you just hear me out
And be the one I came to call?
Oh don't you see
Even dogs under table
Eat the children's crumbs
There are thousands out here hungry
Will your bread yet be broken
For the ones still shuttered out?
Cause we're waiting
Oh I'm out here waiting
If you would hear me now
