| | | Lyrics: | In the stillness of the alley waits a man with an open blade
And he hurts the woman badly and
within her plants his seed
She can't shake the dirt and horror as the seed takes root and
grows
But the law now claims her body, the doctor's door is closed
She goes back to
another alley to a leering butcher's blade
And the deal is dark and bloody in the crime the law
has made.
CHORUS:
And the face at the window never blinks never turns away
When
you wake in the night to a flashing light
When you burn on judgment day
They have spoke
aloud your daydreams
They have listened to your plans
They have watched you dance in the
rainstorm
They have seen you ride the wind.
Walking slowly home at night a man
touching a man
And the car looks kind of familiar and it's coming round again
You got no
chance in that deadly dance when they cut you to the bone
There's a bleeding gash from the
broken glass and you hear somebody moan
And maybe somebody calls the cops and they take their
own sweet time
And they say it's just a couple of fags again and maybe your friend is
dying.
CHORUS
And your lover comes to you softly and you touch and you feel no
shame
And you steal away from the city and lightning fills your veins
In an
air-conditioned office the committee discusses your case
They know the words you whispered they
felt the flush upon your face.
They have files on every fantasy, who's on top and who's
below
You have crossed into the shadow place where outlaws freely
roam.
CHORUS
You can drink the lies of paradise while the books on the shelves
disappear
You can make a comfortable living, you can swear it can't happen here
And maybe
they'll come for the unionists and maybe they'll come for the Jews
And maybe they'll come for
the heretics but they'll never come for you
When you hear the step in the hallway, when you
taste the iron fear
Don't you go shouting out for justice 'cause there's no one left to
hear.
