The sign in the road says we're going nowhere
I been running down a dead end street
I wanna rip through all the faces of the fools I see
And I know I'll never get away
'cause the gutter taught me early that there ain't no better days for me
I guess my childhood broke my heart
Down in the projects you learn pain from the start
That's where I learned to hate the world,
Just another lost soul praying to the night sky alone
Can someone, someone please tell me where I went wrong?
And how many more times will I have to sing this same old song?
Can you tell me, tell me please, tell me where I went wrong?
And how many more times will I have to sing this same old sad, sad fucking song?
I done my time on the city streets
Y'know that corner took a piece of me and my heart
And made me an enemy of the world
Just another lost soul praying to the night sky alone
I been running down this dead end street
I wanna rip through all the faces I see
I'm lost forever on this dead end street
I'll leave this epitaph that no one will read
