[Todd Kowalski]
Another day of life
I was drifting off in thought
But I can't escape this nightmare very long
Young girls flag the johns
Who troll the block in circles
Waiting for their moment to take the plunge
All of us
Crossing paths
We're all in the same place but it seems
We're living in parallel worlds
I try to imagine
The predator's stinking breath
His body against mine
The foulness when he's spent
All of us pa**ing by
Somewhere in the alleys of our minds
We all have our secret worlds
Some are haunted by memories
Some have an impulse to be cruel
And they're watching intently
To see who they can use
You don't know who's a freak
And on this street
They're out here lurking all the time
Amidst the swirling snow
I saw a friend out jonesing and cold
She was pacing and waiting alone
For an unknown
I guess that life has taken its toll
The vultures circle close
At any moment we might slip and fall
The jackals are waiting
Waiting for us all
