Screw On Shoes Lyrics

I am carrying a lantern
I am putting on my outdoor shoes
there is nothing in my house
there is nothing in the car
there is nothing in the world to lose
to lose

and I am saying my prayers at nighttime
just trying to scare the devil away
but i dont know the right words
and I dont have the nerve
and I wouldnt know what to say
what to say

I am always so paranoid
that I leave by the fire escape
and I take quiet steps
with my shoes and my coat
and I'm running down the alleyway
