You see a junkie, I see
Low self-esteem.
You see a problem, I see someone
Swimming against the stream.
You see a cocaine fiend, I see
Pain and fear.
You see an inmate, I see
A bum-steer.
You see an alcoholic, I see
Social-anxiety.
You see a loser, I see
Future sobriety.
You see an addict, I see
Someone's child.
You see a disgrace, I see someone
Whose problems compiled.
You see a prostitute, I see someone
Caught in addiction.
You see a jail bird, I see
Their conviction.
You see a self-centered person,
I see the disease.
You see death,
I see someone ill at ease.
You see a pill head,
I see someone in pain.
You see no hope, I see
Someone caught in the rain.
You see a lost cause, I see
A willingness to change.
You see someone evil, I see
The exchange.
You see denial, I see
Someone willing to try.
You see them in hell, I see
A person reaching for the sky.
You see a dope-fiend, I see
A new soul.
You see a creature, I see the
Way out of the hole.
You see a lost person,
I see their heart.
You see the end,
I see a new start.
