Lyrics

Night falls fast in shuttered rooms
East End – crowded, smoke-filled
predatory precipice – look out!
Don’t fall, this time
Scan the urban wilderness
those eyes, staring silent
“would you mind if I -”
(well that didn’t go so good...
let’s try that again)
Look at the pretty cats, I say
she says nothing
Suddenly the tables turn
I am… helpless

falling down
feel the pull
from the shadows
fall from grace
these games we play
in the shadows
can not sustain

tell me again what am I
doing in this place?
something inside tells me that
we are not the same
still I’m here a shadow
of what I might have been

convince me, reassure me
there is more than this
just the same, I really doubt that
I will ever change
