Lyrics

Lookin' to find an answer
Searchin' for a clue
Why a man pits his life with a gun and a knife and loses
It's not safe to walk the city
He's ridin' high, she's sitting pretty
Only he knows the time, only he knows his own crime
Standing in shadows, searchin' round the seamy places
But there's not a place for you and for me
So you'd better come on!
There's no place here
Come on!
And feel the fear inside, yeah
Well come on!
Well you mustn't stay, yeah
Come on! Come on! Come on!
And get away, ah yeah
His eyes are dark with anger
Hate building up inside the man
There's gonna be a bad sign
They're gonna have a bad time too
She's waiting at the station
One lonely girl with a dark invitation
And there's no denying that she's standin' on the wrong line
What makes a man to think that he has the right to take a life?
What takes him to the brink and the need to make a sacrifice?
