From my window, I see roads They lead to darkness, leading home And in the midnight of a soul's unsleeping I hear the waterfall of women weeping Hear the distant noise of traffic stalling I hear the prostituted children calling, calling out
From the barred and mesh-floor streets Of a winter's night, without a moon I am safe hidden here I am safe hidden here Hiding out
I look over chequered fields And the towering web of steel Young and old will sit and judge unfeeling While the empty church's bells are pealing And the green hills lay ignored, untended The lonely watchers remain unbefriended
And out in the one-way streets Is a swelling maze, without a door I am safe hidden here I am safe hidden here, yeah I am safe hidden here I am safe hidden here I am safe I am safe hidden here Hiding out I am safe hidden here Hiding out I am safe hidden here Hiding out I am safe hidden here Hiding out I am safe hidden here Hiding out I am safe hidden here Hiding out I am safe hidden here (I gotta hide out, yeah) Hiding out I am safe hidden here Hiding out
