Streets

As darkness falls so hard
 The children play
 Somewhere
 Out there
 Alone and out of place
 Streets of illusion
 Sooth the shattered fate
 I've been a runner
 I've been a sinner
 I've been inside my head
 I sit here staring
 Never quite caring
 And this is where it has led
 (Chorus)
 These streets
 Glitter in the dark
 Don't sleep
 Red eyes sunken and stark
 Dream deep
 In her arms where you are safe
 These streets
 Never sleep still never wake
 Somewhere out there
 Gardens bloom and grow
 Children awaken
 To a world they know
 Somewhere the sun shines
 Somewhere the light's kind
 Somewhere they seek the day
 Somewhere there's no scene
 Somewhere the air's clean
 But somewhere is so far away
 These streets
 Glitter in the dark
 Don't sleep
 Red eyes sunken and stark
 Dream deep
 In her arms where you are safe
 These streets
 Never sleep still never wake
 Welcome children
 From the other side
 In the darkness
 Your eyes are opened wide
 Here there are answers
 On the edge dancers
 Here the night hides out sins
 And if you listen
 While the streets glisten
 Here's where our story begins
 These streets
 Glitter in the dark
 Don't sleep
 Red eyes sunken and stark
 Dream deep
 In her arms where you are safe
 These streets
 Never sleep still never wake
