Lead to darkness, leading home
In the midnight of a soul's unsleeping
Hear the waterfall of women weeping
Hear the distant noise of traffic stalling
Hear the prostituted children calling
From the barred and mesh- floor streets
Of a winter's night,without a moon
I am safe-hidden here.
I am safe-hidden here
Hiding out
I look over the chequerd fields
And the towering web of steel
Young and old will sit and judge unfeeling
While the empty church's bell are pealing
And the green hills lay ignored, untended
Lonely watchers remain unbefriended
And out in the one way streets
Is a swelling maze,without a door
I am safe-hidden here
I am safe-hidden here
Hiding out
From my window I see roads Lead to darkness, leading home In the midnight of a soul's unsleeping Hear the waterfall of women weeping Hear the distant noise of traffic stalling Hear the prostituted children calling From the barred and mesh- floor streets Of a winter's night,without a moon I am safe-hidden here. I am safe-hidden here Hiding out I look over the chequerd fields And the towering web of steel Young and old will sit and judge unfeeling While the empty church's bell are pealing And the green hills lay ignored, untended Lonely watchers remain unbefriended And out in the one way streets Is a swelling maze,without a door I am safe-hidden here I am safe-hidden here Hiding out Explain Request ×
