Man in motion on the street
Rare emotion, feel the heat
Hiding places, no escape
Only traces of it, give and take

Hearts are broken every day
Got a feeling, oh it's the way
Empty spaces all around
Without the paupers, where's the crown

When the lights go down
In the middle of the night
And the world around
Is it wrong or right

When the lights go down
In the middle of the night
And your beating heart
Is all that you find

See the writing on the wall
Listen closely, hear the call
It's a matter of circumstance
It's a game where you take a chance

When the lights go down
In the middle of the night
And the world around
Is it wrong or right

When the lights go down
In the middle of the night
And your beating heart
Is all that you find
