THE Street

A crowded busy city street The place where everyone meets A subtle gesture returns a glance An inside tip gains a smile The rain has stopped I'll be back in a while Another sign of twisted circumstance As I exit the doorway, I look to the right An image hangs under the streetlight invoking a spirit Silent but deadly Got to keep going got a lot to do Got to spend my time in search for you Got to take you down and if you won't I'm going to scoot This dark and eerie trail of sin I can't believe this space you're in The search for unknown truth is all so close Looking back to see how it occurred I keep on looking but it's still obscured Somehow the facts will come to pass As I exit the doorway, I look to the right An image hangs under the streetlight, invoking a spirit Silent but deadly I've seen this before and it's true Based on my gut I know it's you For reasons that shatter the mask that you live through You can't change your past and walk away It really wouldn't matter anyways Your fate was predestined, accept it, or fall Got to keep going got a lot to do Got to spend my time in search for you Got to take you down and if you won't I'm going to scoot Got to keep going got a lot to do Got to spend my time in search for you Got to take you down and if you won't I'm going to scoot As I exit the doorway, I look to the right An image hangs under the streetlight invoking a spirit Silent but deadly A crowded city street where darkness meets He puts a gun in his hand And pulls the trigger And it's over
