Down dark lonely streets I follow
Past alleys beckoning to swallow me up
Listening for familiar sounds
Touching the air for a taste of what fills my soul
The shadows stretch across barren walls
Hiding what time has written upon them
Out of the minds that were
For those who have forgotten to read
Hey man, what can I say that others haven’t said before
No one listened then so why, why, why would they now
The sounds of children playing, a woman’s screams in the night
Do we care anymore
We are becoming a lost generation
Forgetting who we were
Who we wanted to become
Settling for what is given us
Darkness comes for us all
Will we let it swallow us up
Will the shadows drag us off down the dark alleys
Or will we say no, no, no more, I can’t take it anymore
