|
As darkness falls so hard |
|
The children play |
|
Somewhere |
|
Out there |
|
Alone and out of place |
|
Streets of illusion |
|
Sooth the shattered fate |
|
I've been a runner |
|
I've been a sinner |
|
I've been inside my head |
|
I sit here staring |
|
Never quite caring |
|
And this is where it has led |
|
(Chorus) |
|
These streets |
|
Glitter in the dark |
|
Don't sleep |
|
Red eyes sunken and stark |
|
Dream deep |
|
In her arms where you are safe |
|
These streets |
|
Never sleep still never wake |
|
Somewhere out there |
|
Gardens bloom and grow |
|
Children awaken |
|
To a world they know |
|
Somewhere the sun shines |
|
Somewhere the light's kind |
|
Somewhere they seek the day |
|
Somewhere there's no scene |
|
Somewhere the air's clean |
|
But somewhere is so far away |
|
These streets |
|
Glitter in the dark |
|
Don't sleep |
|
Red eyes sunken and stark |
|
Dream deep |
|
In her arms where you are safe |
|
These streets |
|
Never sleep still never wake |
|
Welcome children |
|
From the other side |
|
In the darkness |
|
Your eyes are opened wide |
|
Here there are answers |
|
On the edge dancers |
|
Here the night hides out sins |
|
And if you listen |
|
While the streets glisten |
|
Here's where our story begins |
|
These streets |
|
Glitter in the dark |
|
Don't sleep |
|
Red eyes sunken and stark |
|
Dream deep |
|
In her arms where you are safe |
|
These streets |
|
Never sleep still never wake |
