Down A Darkened Alley
Down a darkened alley
There be raised voices.
Some totals fail to tally
Someone's outta choices.
There's no room for compromise
When you're magnetic to the devil's eyes.
Enter an empty street
All things seem so forced.
In sweltering heat
Curse that light source.
There's no room for dwelling
When they know you've been telling.
Down a darkened alley
There be no escape.
Can't be that pally
With a body outta shape.
There's no room for thinking twice
When they scurry around like frightened mice.
Enter an empty street
All things are so quiet.
Hoping to never meet
King Kong in the midst of a riot.
There's no room for eyes to close
When they're disguised as a routine red rose.
