Our Darkness

Through these city nightmares you'd walk with me
 And we'd talk of it with idealistic assurance
 That it wouldn't tear us apart
 We'd keep our heads above the blackened water
 But there's no room for ideals in this mechanical place
 And you're gone now
 Through a grimy window that I can't keep clean
 Through billowing smoke that's swallowed the sun
 You're nowhere to be seen
 Do you think our desires still burn
 I guess it was desires that tore us apart
 There has to be passion
 A passion for living, surviving
 And that means detachment
 Everybody has a weapon to fight you with
 To beat you with when you are down
 There were too many defence between us
 Doubting all the time
 Fearing all the time
 Doubting all the time
 Fearing all the time
 That like these urban nightmares
 We'd blacken each other skies
 ♪
 When we passed the subways we tried to ignore our fate there
 Of written threats on endless walls
 Unjustified crimes carried in stifled calls
 Would you walk with me now through this pouring rain
 It used to mingle with our tears
 Then dry with the hopes that we left behind
 It rains even harder now
