Standing In the Shadows

He was a desparate man
 They couldn't understand
 He wanted more from life
 It was his one device
 Yeah, he fell tried and hung
 When the lights were low
 Yeah it was in his eyes
 And it was no surprise
 Through the streets at night
 He's smiling like no other
 As he paid again
 Look to find another
 Standing in the shadows
 Watching the world go by
 Standing in the shadows
 He was looking
 Looking for a place to hide
 He felt this way before
 And knew he wanted more
 He knew the dawn would come
 And he'd be on the run
 But still they drove him on
 Like a loaded gun
 His time was running out
 And he realized that he'd been here before
 Like a scream in the night
 For his crime they showed no pity
 Even though they'd done the same
 It's the way of life in the city
 Standing in the shadows
 Watching the world go by
 Standing in the shadows
 He was looking
 Looking for a place to hide
 Lock your doors
 Standing in the shadows
 Watching the world go by
 He was standing in the shadows
 Looking
 Looking for a place
 Standing in the shadows
 He was standing in the shadows
 Watching the world
 Standing in the shadows
 Standing in the shadows
 He was standing in the shadows
 Standing in the shadows
 Standing in the shadows
