The House, The Street, The Room

The room and street are known only to me and a few

I won't tell nobody

A place to meet where no-one can tell you what to do

I won't tell nobody

Here, awake in sleep together

My time is spent in chains and confusion in my head

I don't tell nobody

I keep my pains and swallow the harsh tears that I shed

I don't tell nobody

Here, in reverie together

I find escape in the street, in the house, in the room

I become somebody

I cast my die and leave all my troubles in the room

I become somebody

Here, awake in sleep together
