Lyrics
half past midnight in the city
halogen dreams
plastic bags and late night prowlers
scatter as they leave
discarded change and chewing gum
forms patterns on the road
a canvas of abandoned hope
a desperate code
the drunk and his hunchbacked shadow
stagger along
hurling abuse at the faceless buildings
echoes burst out in song
time is somehow slowing down
the waning interest
the crows and pigeons gather round
groomed as dinner party guests
the words of the drunk racist
his vomit stricken creed
plastered inside the bus stop walls
for those who care to read
a light goes out in the quiet street
the centerpiece removed
dark creeps in to the blistered ground
the pavement gently soothed
