When Darkness Comes Lyrics

When the lights go down In the cities and towns The alleyways and ghetto's Are way out of bounds The dealers and the pimps Let the night take the blame Selling sex in stilettos And half-cut cocaine The motor pulls up The window goes down She knows what he wants He doesn't have to make a sound She don't know what's in his pocket It could be cash or pain She's got nothing to lose She ain't got nothing to gain So when darkness comes to the city Don't wait around for too long When darkness comes to the city You know it's time you were gone When darkness comes to the city You'd better start making tracks When darkness comes to the city Get out and don't come back When the lights go down The streets are ruled by fear If you've got the right money They've got the right gear Pathetic, sad and lonely They crave their daily fix While low-lives chase the dragon The perverts get their kicks
