Downtown

Now that I'm feeling downtown

Like never before

Now that I'm folding my fingers

Ready for war

The painted face of disaster

I search for more

I light another cigarette

Swallow the poison glossy eyed

Dressed in fire with empty words

It came as no surprise

The people conversating

Beyond all will to listen

The people will stand in lines

With great high walls between them

Coal black hair china white doll skull

With amber slit eyes

Bittersweet with a razor tongue

See through polished lies

The dim light is bathing you blood red

Adrenalin shock

I light another cigarette

Swallow the poison glossy eyed

Dressed in fire with empty words

It came as no surprise

The people conversating

Beyond all will to listen

The people will stand in lines

With great high walls between them

Looking through star dust illusions with faraway eyes

Pretending they know and understand

See through the disguise

I light another cigarette

Swallow the poison glossy eyed

Dressed in fire with empty words

It came as no surprise

The people conversating

Beyond all will to listen

The people will stand in lines

With great high walls between them
