Been roaming the streets in the nightlights
Always scavenge the streets at night
Anxiety screams through the back of his head again
Need something that eases the hunger
Just need something that cures the pain
One last escape then I'm ready to live again
We walk in line, reach out for the sky
On needles and pins
It's hard to fight with a will to die
Then place all bets in
These times, these times aren't a-changing
From street ends to anywhere
These lives, these lives aren't a-waiting
For a miracle to appear
Been searching for something to trust in
He keeps trying but always fails
All hatred burns through the back of his head again
I just need someone who sees me
And don't you think you're superior
When safety's off, will you show me respect, my friend?
Again and again
We walk in line, reach out for the sky
See the reaper's grin
It's hard to fight with a will to die
Then place all bets in
These times, these times aren't a-changing
From street ends to anywhere
These lives, these lives aren't a-waiting
For a miracle to appear
Not here
These times, these times aren't a-changing
From street ends to anywhere
These lives, these lives aren't a-waiting, no
These times (these times)
And these lives (these lives)
From street ends to anywhere
These times (these times)
And these lives (these lives)
So stop preaching 'cause there ain't no miracle here
