nighttime comes to meet me
|
shadows call my name
|
my face is lit
|
by streetlight glow
|
|
one world on the outside
|
a million worlds within
|
the stars stare down
|
like distant eyes
|
|
streets of every city
|
all the rivers of the night
|
they know me now
|
so alone
|
|
one more step is one less step
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
|
one heart filled with silence
|
one heart filled with pain
|
one heart filled with fire
|
that drowns itself in rain
|
|
one heart deep in passion
|
one heart in withdrawal
|
one heart overwhelmed
|
by the beauty of it all
|
|
one heart made to wait
|
and one heart made to crawl
|
one heart overloaded
|
by the horror of it all
|
|
eyes wide open
|
eyes go blind
|
to the ghetto on the inside
|
the ghetto in the mind
|
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
oh yeah
|
|
there is no grace to fall from
|
just choices that you make
|
there is no truth to live by
|
but the next breath that you take
|
|
eyes wide open
|
eyes so blind
|
to the prison on the inside
|
the prison in the mind
|
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
we walk alone
|
so alone
|
|
