2 ReviewsOn the streets at night the only light for miles, the fire in the sky. More lyrics from my little note book.
If looks could kill
My heart would stutter
til it's still
Held captive by your eyes
I can see it in your smile
I'm alone in all of this
Theres no one on my side
I can run but I can't hide
Running out of time
On the streets at night
The only light for miles
The fire in the sky
Down dismal alley ways
parched and stranded for days
Still I stand and wait
Bend until I break
It's only our lives at stake
A chill corses down my spine
We're done for this time
With noone on my side
Too far gone to run and hide
Times slips away tonight
On the streets at night
The only light for miles
The fire in the sky
Down dismal alley ways
parched and stranded for days
Still I stand and wait
A crooked grin
To let me know that you've won
Heartbeats under your thumb
My ghost in white
Haunting me each night
Empty footsteps up these stairs
Down and broken but no one cares
Or cares to see what we've become
A fragile game under the setting sun
On the streets at night
The only light for miles
The fire in the sky
Down dismal alley ways
parched and stranded for days
Still I stand and wait
