A Hundred Streets

A hundred streets and I will walk them all

Raising wire on concrete walls, oh yeah

Welcome to the neighborhood

Another siren cuts the night in two

Another killer from another crew, oh yeah

There's something going on

I put my heart into this English town

Still one hand giveth and the other strikes you down

Just like it ever was

But all the money, wounds, and broken glass

Will turn the dust and every feeling too will pass

Turns something else

I see the teeth in every strangers smile

I'll even die in this familiar square mile

Than by the riverside

We'll build the future just to tear it down

Beside the banks of the only sting in town

She keeps on running

To hold me down

To hold me down

And this is not a time for turning back

A hundred streets and I stepped on every crack

The tile was built in time

I write the script and I'll play my part

Until forever comes to steal it's beating heart

And hold me down

To hold me down

Hold me down

Hold me down

Hold me down

It's all connected by invisible ties

Dig out the truth within a million snow white lies

To keep you honest

And the world is beautiful when life is sweet

If I could leave a mark upon these hundred streets

Let it be this
