I been walkin' at the midnight hour
In the darkness I can feel it's power
The city streets are a mystery, I said a mystery
But they're the world to me

And in the darkness yeah, I'm all alone
But it's the darkness gonna save my soul tonight
And their society's a mystery, I said a mystery
And one I'll never see

And through it all y'know the world keeps turnin'
On the streets y'know the tears keep burnin'
I got no place and I gotta get away

Take me, take me away
I gotta get outta this place tonight
Take me, take me away
The sky is falling and I just can't bear the sight

I want my innocence back
Can you make my soul intact tonight?
Y'know they tried to take it all away
They tried to hurt me and I still can feel the pain

And through it all y'know the world keeps turnin'
On the streets y'know the tears keep burnin'
I got no faith and I gotta get away

Take me, take me away
The sky is falling and I just can't bear the sight

I just can't bear the sight
