The streets are dark
The sun has gone to bed
The night that should bring peace
Instead screams inside my head

I don’t know how I got here
Or how to get back home
Woke up in a madman’s circus
Scarred and all alone

Words are hollow
Thoughts are deaf
My head aches from the explosion
Of the bomb I lit myself

*
Their eyes cut right through me
Cut straight into my soul
Starring at this hollow man
With his heart as dark as coal

I search for signs of maps
I’ve looked for maps of signs
The darkness seems to laugh aloud
As I loose all sense of time

I was asleep behind the wheel
When I turned upon this road
I know not when I shut my eyes
Or how far I am from home

Spirit lay shattered upon the ground
Pride replaced by shame
Love a wish upon a star
Hate the beast to tame

*
Their eyes cut right through me
Cut straight into my soul
Starring at this hollow man
With his heart as dark as coal

Not bad at all.. . I see a lot of potential. I've posted some songs too, in the thread called two-toned lyrics, that might interest you...
