Kebabylon

I see through your swagger, I sweep up your sickness I find what is lost and thrown away I stoop for your secrets, I bend for your blood I kill corruption, so it lives another day I'm a wallflower in the darkness in fireproof clothes Undercover, undervalued, underpaid I ride the edges and the cracks, I see behind the curtain I am invisible, I am your moonlight maid Sifting through the streets of Kebabylon Chasing down the ghosts of indiscretion and lust These empty, filthy streets are where I belong Down among the devilry, down in the dust And you're already dreaming as I claw up your condom As your syringe cracks underneath my boot You've crashed on the couch, passed out on the porch Such a lover, such a liar, such a brute And with the evidence destroyed, your sleep will be sound I'm your angel, your accomplice, and look what I've found Sifting through the streets of Kebabylon Chasing down the ghosts of indiscretion and lust These empty, filthy streets are where I belong Down among the devilry, down in the dust So join me on the streets of Kebabylon We can find a story for the ages tonight These empty, filthy streets are where I belong Always trying hard to outrun the light
