Lyrics:

“Honey, say nothing gonna stop it
once it gets inside you can’t get out
your big brother ain’t gonna save you
or your little brother, or you mamma or you papa
no one comes down here
down here is an alley where the sun ain’t never seen a face
------ he said he’d been on the outside”



We are the little ones
Who roan the underbelly of the streets
That normal people walk
Wrong side of the tracks,
The deep end of the ocean,
The color of the gypsies in the shadow night

Darkness inside out seeps into your veins,
Listen to the rain,
The only thing keeping you alive
Is the gracious night

Let me go,
Let me sleep until forever
Let me close my eyes
And hide until the never
Let me go
Let me slip into the sky
And tiptoe into madness
In a hollow cry

‘Cause no one ever told me
I committed any crime
And no one ever told me
How I went blind

And all I ever wanted
Was a free mind,
A guiltless conscience
And a place where I could fly

I threw my cards out on the table
And I put my neck out on the line
I took the verdict I was handed
And now I’ve served my time

Let me go
