A Hundred Streets

A hundred streets and I will walk them all Raising wire on concrete walls, oh yeah Welcome to the neighborhood Another siren cuts the night in two Another killer from another crew, oh yeah There's something going on (Uuuuu Uuuuu) I put my heart into this English town Still one hand giveth and the other strikes you down Just like it ever was But all the money, wounds, and broken glass Will turn the dust and every feeling too will pass Turns something else (Uuuuu Ohhhh) I see the teeth in every strangers smile I'll even die in this familiar square mile Than by the riverside We'll build the future just to tear it down Beside the banks of the only sting in town She keeps on running (To hold me down) And this is not a time for turning back A hundred streets and I stepped on every crack The tile was built in time I write the script and I'll play my part Until forever comes to steal it's beating heart (And hold me down) It's all connected by invisible ties Dig out the truth within a million snow white lies To keep you honest And the world is beautiful when life is sweet If I could leave a mark upon these hundred streets Let it be this
