City streets
With city beats
Bars stay open all night,
The search for
Dead heroes
Goes on,
The birds swoop down
To snatch his crown
Tainted values
Of skeletons' gold
The midnight fires
Light, solemn souls
Rise,
I said Rise and sing,
As I stepped into
The circle of light
The radio shouted this song
Swing, swing the door open
Step into the room
Let go of the chair
And stare into the gloom,
So I walked next to the wall
And I pulled the cord
Watching my doom
Through a television
Monitor.
