Redlight bandits on the corner give no quarter calls
Infectious garbage fills the streets and in their eyes you know
A thin blue line bends and breaks stop the overflow
(1) Fan the flames of the city's heat
In dark corners hiding never seen
Desperation and the trouble flares
Alarm guns ring running scared
And you're long gone, down in this hell
Long gone down in this hell
So baby won't you hold me tight
Let your softness fill my night
We've got a dream don't let it slip away
'In your eyes I can see the fear
This town never sheds a tear
We're gonna be /out someday/walking away
Keep on looking for a holy one,
Some kind of hero or a prophet to come
Visionaries dance your night away
There's no tomorrow living for today
But you're long gone down in this hell
Long gone down in this hell
[Instrumental]
I saw the stars come out tonight so lonely and immune
Summer rain kissed the streets that bleed like open wounds
Patrol cars sweep the avenues down on Forty Eighth
While faces in dark doorways wait around the hate
(1) Repeat
(2) Baby better walk away
Baby better walk away
We'll be busting out someday
(2) repeat
[Instrumental]
Skulking in the mean streets whispering in the halls Redlight bandits on the corner give no quarter calls Infectious garbage fills the streets and in their eyes you know A thin blue line bends and breaks stop the overflow (1) Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners hiding never seen Desperation and the trouble flares Alarm guns ring running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away 'In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be /out someday/walking away Keep on looking for a holy one, Some kind of hero or a prophet to come Visionaries dance your night away There's no tomorrow living for today But you're long gone down in this hell Long gone down in this hell [Instrumental] I saw the stars come out tonight so lonely and immune Summer rain kissed the streets that bleed like open wounds Patrol cars sweep the avenues down on Forty Eighth While faces in dark doorways wait around the hate (1) Repeat (2) Baby better walk away Baby better walk away We'll be busting out someday (2) repeat [Instrumental] Explain Request ×
