Empty street of beads of light
None spell safety in my sight
Lend me a knife,
Lend me a life,
So I can make it home tonight

Chorus:
Walk through the night-side,
Walk like a beast
Stalk like a caveman,
Stark rock-bottom changes least

Stalking down the silent stone,
Distance, keep me safe alone
With a ready grip
On a scrap-iron strip,
Sure as a club of bison bone

City jungle, yes, it's true
That's what cops and robbers do
Try to get free,
That's how to be,
Strong enough to walk it through

So come on, junkie, rapist, crook,
Stop and take another look
I'm still alive
And mean to survive,
It's all down in Darwin's book

Stark rock-bottom changes least
