Dark in the alleyway Light from the window filters down Down where the streets are calling Everybody's waiting for the morning There's nothing left to lose All has been spent and gone for good Still you are guarding your least secret you're holding on It never makes you tall no more It's no good for you It never breaks your fall no more Always falling through You were an innocent Victim of all those hungry lies Lies that were custom fashioned They handed out the stuff Suddenly you could not get enough No you are left with no more secrets you're empty I have seen you standing there In someone else's hands I reach out but you're not there
