1
(Michael Timmins)
2
This street holds its secrets like a cobra holds its kill
3
This street minds its business like a jailer minds his jail
4
That house there is haunted
5
That door's a portal to hell
6
This street holds its secrets very well
7
That man wears his skin like a dancer wears her veils
8
That man stalks his victims like a cancer stalks a cell
9
That man's soul has left him his heart's as deadly as a rusty nail
10
That man sheds his skin like a veil
11
Lord, you play a hard game, you know we follow every rule
12
Then you take the one thing we thought we'd never lose
13
All I ask is if she's with you please keep her warm and safe
14
and if it's in your power please purge the memory of this place
15
This life holds its secrets like a sea shell holds the sea,
16
soft and distant calling like a fading memory
17
This life has its victories but its defeats tear so viciously
18
This life holds its secrets like the sea
